I can't think of any good reasons it *shouldn't* work.
Then, next question: Is it likely to find windows building failures, are
are the failures usually of the kind that would not occur in a
not-quite-a-real-windows environment?
As far as I know, yes it should look like a real Windows environment.
However, now that I think about it, I suspect what I'm remembering is
that someone used GHC under Wine to develop something else, rather than
building GHC itself. Building GHC might be rather more difficult.
Cheers,
