oh, no! my fault: instead of adding this directory to the path i have
moved executables (and only executables!) to ghc\bin directory. so the
corrected instruction should look like:
1. downloaded cabal.exe 1.8 and put into PATH
2. reinstalled globally the mtl package:
ghc-pkg unregister mtl
cabal install mtl --global
3. installed manually alex and happy
4. extracted all-in-one package from http://www.gtk.org/download-windows.html
and added its bin directory to PATH
5. executed "cabal install gtk2hs-buildtools" and added
C:\Users\{USERNAME}\AppData\Roaming\cabal\bin directory to PATH
6. executed "cabal install gtk"
(untested, untested!). it will be great if someone will test it
on pure Windows box
why you don't use -O and -split-objs in cabal files?
