That's a different GHCi problem :-)  We know the cause: the base package is 
currently missing some extra-libraries on Windows.  Ian is looking into fixing 
it.  As a workaround, you could copy the extra-libraries from package.conf.in to 
base.cabal in your tree.

Yes; it's just a temporary workaround.  I'm working on a better fix.
