I'm getting this error when trying to compile current GHC-HEAD on windows:

rts/Linker.c:1039 basicly is just:
{{{
RTS_MINGW_ONLY_SYMBOLS
}}}
with the definition somewhere below line 381:
{{{
/* These are statically linked from the mingw libraries into the ghc
executable, so we have to employ this hack. */
#define RTS_MINGW_ONLY_SYMBOLS \
...
SymI_NeedsProto(mktime) \
...
SymI_NeedsProto(localtime) \
SymI_NeedsProto(gmtime) \
...
}}}
I tried all different versions of MinGW - the one of the current Haskell
Platform 2010.2.0.0 and the one currently available at mingw.org and an
old version I had installed.
However, removing these 3 lines will result in another error, so the
changes to fix this won't be that trivial:
{{{
rts\sm\GC.c: In function 'new_gc_thread':
rts\sm\GC.c:863:11:
error: incompatible types when assigning to type 'OSThreadId' from
type 'int'
make[1]: *** [rts/dist/build/sm/GC.thr_o] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2
}}}
(even though I'm not 100% if that's because of those changes, since I
probably never got that far in the building process...)
