I want a _real_ cygwin version of darcs. The non-deterministic pseudo-cygwin *nix/Windows hybrid currently available has just too many problems integrating into cygwin, that I want to use as my TeXing and minor coding environment. A real cygwin version of darcs would seem to depend on a real cygwin version of GHC. Is there any easy way to compile one? Otherwise I may have to abandon darcs (and Haskell software in general) for Mercurial.
(Thanks to the over-bearing cabal and resulting hsc2hs etc. build problems with conventional Makefiles, I have already pretty much already abandoned my own Haskell projects.)
