ProblemsCompilingGhc

 After actually reading the documentation, I realized this only applies when compiling under Cygwin. The building guide says, "Cygwin doesn't deal well with filenames that include spaces", which I disagree with. Scripts should be able to handle such filenames by using the "cygpath" command appropriate. However, I see that Cygwin isn't supported, so probably this isn't very important.
 
+=== Problem 6 ===
+The configure script wants something like:
+--with-gcc=c:/mingw/bin/gcc
+and not:
+--with-gcc=c:\\mingw\\bin\\gcc
+and certainly not:
+--with-gcc=/cygdrive/c/mingw/bin/gcc
+
+This should probably be stated more prominently.
