Nope. Run installer which installed it in c:\ghc\ghc-6.2 and tried to
compile "Hello World" which fails as described before.

Uninstalled, 6.2 & installed 6.0.1 and everything works.

They are set, but has something in GHC changed in regards to it between 6.0.1
& 6.2 since 6.0.1 has compiled darcs several times without any problem in the
same environment.
