Yet another 6.4 installer, this time fixing issues regarding GHC
use on Win9x / NT4 installations:

http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/stable/dist/ghc-6-4-bld2.msi
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/stable/dist/ghc-6-4-bld2.msi.md5

Unless some _really bad_ platform-specific bugs are reported against
this one soon, that's the final 6.4 installer.

The caveats/remarks below for the 'bld1' version also applies to
this one.
