Clifford In the next few days we'll release GHC 5.02. The Windows version of that will not require any version of cygwin; it comes complete, and you don't need to install anything else to make it work. (Nor does it mind if you have some version of cygwin installed, a surprisingly difficult criterion to satisfy, given Window's DLL story.) So I suggest you wait a few days. I do mean days and not weeks! (There is a slightly experimental Windows binary download you can try meanwhile; I enclose the message announcing it.) I'm not certain whether HOpen/GL has 'caught up' to GHC 5.02, but I'm sure it will shortly, and any differences will be of the trivial kind.
