I presume there's not a binary build for 4.04 (at least, not yet).
Two oddities I've noticed with ghc-4.03, win+cygnus binary build:
The -ansi flag makes gcc go berserk on the generated code. I stopped.
'getEnv "PATH"' returns, not the value of PATH, but the whole environment.
Which is also handy, but not what I understood the report to specify,
