This looks like you have a 32-bit MinGW install on your PATH, which makes findFiles return that `libmingw32.a` instead of the ones bundled with GHC. It's even more suspicious that calling GHC fails with GCC errors about standard headers... -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14077#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

Unfortunately, installing Haskell Platform for 32 bits doesn't work, and neither would I prefer to do so. Haskell ships with a different version of GCC, for starters. I might look into MinGW-w64 but from my experience, it's not nearly as easy to install as MinGW is. Removing the following from my environment variables ''does'' makes Haskell work: {{{ LIBRARY_PATH=D:\MinGW\bin;%LIBRARY_PATH% INCLUDE_PATH=D:\MinGW\include;%INCLUDE_PATH% }}} However, it makes other programs fail (to compile, but also to run). -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14077#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

As such it follows the standard search path to find dependencies. You're globally modifying your library directories and so telling it to look there, it's doing just that. I believe platform also provides an msys2 shell, you can configure that not to inherit your environment values or remove them in your bash profile. You can try reporting this to https://github.com/haskell/haskell-platform but I can't speak for them whether this is a bug or not. They likely don't want to modify your global environment by default in a heavy handed way. But this is just a configuration issue. Setting `LIBRARY_PATH` will affect all GCC's on the machine if you set it globally. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14077#comment:3 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
