Hmm. Re-running the configure step, and the mode_t test worked. I have no idea why. The first time it said checking Haskell type for ino_t... Int16 checking Haskell type for mode_t... not supported
This time it says checking Haskell type for ino_t... Int16 checking Haskell type for mode_t... Word16 However, if success on mode_t is required (which it is) for Windows, shouldn't we get an error from configure, rather than ploughing on and only bleating later when some obscure file doesn't compile?

The Windows build is failing. Here's the error: libraries\base\System\Posix\Types.hs:179:23: Not in scope: type constructor or class `CMode' make[1]: *** [libraries/base/dist-install/build/System/Posix/Types.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... Indeed base/includes/HsBaseConfig.h says /* Define to Haskell type for mode_t */ /* #undef HTYPE_MODE_T */ which means CMode doesn't get defined. The config.log file looks suspicious, note the line in red.
