Well, part of the issue is that it just annoys me as a matter of principle that I have to install a *Unix* emulator in order to write *Windows* software. What's up with that?
You've actually got that a bit backwards. GHC, Curl and all the other things you are complaining about are all pieces of software that started life on Unix and just so happen to be able to (if you're luck) compile on windows. What you need is not a Unix emaulator, but the build tools that are used on Unix but on windows.
