I'm tying to compile GHC under mingw (winxp with mingw no cygwin),

ghc.exe:

any ideas on what could be causing this.

My guess is that your mingw version is diffrent from the one makefile
assumes.  Atleast that problem I have had in past - using diffrent
mingw than ghc/mingw maintainer.  You can check this by running
in-place scripts and checking if ghci works that way.

You could also try copying neccesary stuff from existing ghc
installation - but that might cause even more wierd errors.
