GHC and Windows (DLL/FFI) woes

Hi! I have been trying to build some Windows DLLs with GHC, and I have run into some misfeatures or maybe I have misunderstood how to use GHC. Any help or advice would be appreciated. :) First of all, I can't get ghc to generate stubs from foreign export in anywhere else than next to original source, which is sort of annoying. I would like all the generated files to go quite a bit diffrent place than source directory. Next, --make and --mk-dll don't seem to work together. Ok, what I do, is I just --make -no-link and then --mk-dll all the object files I find :) It seems that -i flag and compiling those _stub.c have following problem: if path given in -i flag contains any /- or \-characters, i.e. any real subpaths, it seems to stop with something like: \source\sunrise\haskell\haskell\..\debug\build\haskell\plugin-hs-test/d:: createDirectory: invalid argument (Invalid argument) It seems a bit random what is the supposed "filename" part of the path, typically it contains drive letter and few colons, it doesn't seem totally random data.
