[ANNOUNCE] Experimental Windows GHC 8.10.5 binary release. Supports Haskell DLLs.

An experimental Windows GHC 8.10.5 64-bit Visual C/Native Windows SDK binary compatible distribution is released. Features: Supports Haskell DLLs. Both static and dynamic compilers are shipped. Uses LLVM tools exclusively, hence linking is blazing fast compared to the stock distro. Is position-independent (can be loaded to any address, not only the lower 2GBs) and generates position-independent code. Based on and targets Microsoft Visual C runtime and native Windows SDK. The "full" variant of distro contains 438 extra prebuilt packages and a set utilities, including not only the mandatory cabal, stack, Happy and Alex, but also linters, formatters, preprocessors, and even beasts like pandoc, haskell-language-server and even Agda compiler.
