There's something very mysterious going on.  GHC does not depend on you
having any particular version of gcc etc; it all comes in the bundle.

Are you absolutely certain that you made no change at all to the
installed binaries?  Such as removing c:/ghc/ghc-6.2/gcc.exe?  

Maybe clean out c:/ghc/ghc-6.2 and try again.  I have just done so and
        ghc Main.hs -o main
        ./main
worked just fine for me.

I don't think GHC depends on the environment variables TEMP or TMP any
more, as a place to store its temporary files, but I suppose it's
possible.  Are they not set, perhaps?
