RE: Resolving Windows 64-bit linker issues
Ah yes, so we do! Excellent. Maybe add Darren ☺ Also should Martin Foster, David Macek be there? I’m sure there is a “how to build GHC on Windows” page (indeed there were too many at one stage). But none of them is listed under “Platform-specific building notes” on https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building. Would that be worth fixing?

Re: ANNOUNCE: GHC 7.10.1 Release Candidate 2
Hi, I modified System/Process/Internals.hs locally and build on MinGW 32bit. Then I was successful to build on 32bit Windows 7.
