Slight correction - we're not using the MS C compiler as a backend. We'll be using the MS linker and a free assembler. GHC will also be able to invoke the MS C compiler for compiling C code.

But nobody else seems to care about this, I haven't seen any authors of Haskell LGPL libraries complain that users can't easily comply with it. I suppose the re-linking requirement isn't as critical

Many Haskell LGPL libraries already employ the same static-linking
exception that wxWidgets pioneered.

That's handy to know, thanks.

Cheers,
