It was intentionally removed (the intention being to remove
heft from the installer) after it had been unintentionally
included for quite a while.
The rule has always been that only tools that GHC depends
upon to operate are bundled with it on the mingw side --
the only exception to that rule has been the recent inclusion
of 'ar'.
Should GHC binary dists include a C++ compiler? I'd say
no, but if there are practical and compelling reasons to do
so, it's no big deal to re-include the binary.

Subject: cc1plus.exe not included in Win32 distro
Hello all,
the official Win32 distro
(http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/6.4.1/ghc-6-4-1.msi)
does not contain cc1plus.exe, needed to compile CPP files:
C:\FreeArchiver> ghc a.cpp
gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1plus': No such file or
directory
is this a packaging bug or intentional change?
--
Best regards,
Bulat mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
