I think this is a GHC's bug. Because current GHC doesn't work with
windres 2.17.50 which is installed by latest MinGW package.

C:\home\ghc-6.9.20080720\libraries\GLUT\examples\OrangeBook\ogl2brick> ghc Brick
.hs --make
C:\home\ghc-6.9.20080720\ghc-6.9.20080715\bin/windres: CreateProcess (null): No
error

C:\home> C:\home\ghc-6.9.20080720\ghc-6.9.20080715\bin\windres.exe -V

I fixed this problem by using older windres.

C:\home\ghc-6.9.20080720\libraries\GLUT\examples\OrangeBook\ogl2brick> C:\home\g
hc-6.9.20080720\ghc-6.9.20080715\bin\windres.exe -V

So, how about replacing ghc\bin's windres by ghc-6.8.x\bin's windres?
Can't you fix your prolem by this way?
