With the build now being cabalized, we've discontinued the installers,
and depend on Haskell Platform and wxWidgets being available. It's quite
a bit of work to do a good installer, and there didn't seem to be much
demand now that Cabal works well.

Hmm. This works for me on a 64 bit Windows 7 image and on a (32 bit) XP
image. I have found that it is more reliable to run the command window
(cmd.exe) as Administrator to get the installation to work on Windows 7.
I do exactly the same as Henk-Jan suggests below.
