Hello! I take it that the problem is that libcurl is a C library with a Unix-like build system, and that is the problem that needs Cygwin, right? I'm not a Windows expert, but having C code is perfectly fine, I guess. My 'hipmunk' library includes a whole C library. When I tried to 'cabal install' it on Windows, it worked flawlessly even if I never really did develop it for Windows. Given that the problem is building libcurl, and not the Haskell curl package, won't a binary distribution of libcurl cut it? I was thinking of [1], where there is an installer for libcurl. http://curl.haxx.se/download.html#Win32 Cheers! =) -- Felipe.
