I assume that you didn't use :main, but just evaluated "main"... and
that either wx or the native windoze gui doesn't like you
reinitialising it without unloading the executable that does it or
whatever: That's the problem if you call into C code, all kind of
things might go wrong.

If you don't want to invest time in programming with stuff that can
perform illegal operations, or at least be sure that you don't do
illegal operations, you are kind of stuck with Haskell, though. You
might to try out things like Fruit, which isolate you from all this
stuff.
