ghc 6.2 build problem (MinGW/MSYS)

Yes I strongly agree.  If we agree that something should be fixed in the
main tree, we can do so and then you can pick up the changes via CVS.
If we agree that all your fixes should go in the tree, it's much easier
if you give us diffs relative to the most up-to-date tree.
