Thanks. There are also versioned files from older builds piling up in 
driver/ghc/dist/build/tmp. 

Btw, I noticed that make binary-dist now attempts to produce an 
installer as well. While that kind of makes sense for windows, it should 
at least check whether the tools in question exist, and omit this final step 
if the tools are missing (traditionally, make binary-dist just produced an 
unpackable archive, while installer generation was a separate step). 

End of binary-dist log (note the empty installer generator path):

    ..
    "/usr/bin/tar" cf - ghc-6.11.20090703 | bzip2 -c > 
        d:/fptools/ghc/ghc-6.11.20090703-i386-unknown-mingw32.tar.bz2
    make -r --no-print-directory -f ghc.mk windows-installer
    "" /O. /Fghc-6.11.20090703-i386-windows - < distrib/ghc.iss
    /bin/sh: : command not found
    make[1]: *** [windows-installer] Error 127
    make: *** [binary-dist] Error 2
