Description

Running Windows Vista, I get a link error with the latest Cabal:

C:\Users\Justin\Source\Cabal-1.4.0.2>ghc --version The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 6.8.3

C:\Users\Justin\Source\Cabal-1.4.0.2>runhaskell Setup.hs configure

During interactive linking, GHCi couldn't find the following symbol:

SHGetFolderPathA@20

This may be due to you not asking GHCi to load extra object files, archives or DLLs needed by your current session. Restart GHCi, specifying the missing library using the -L/path/to/object/dir and -lmissinglibname flags, or simply by naming the relevant files on the GHCi command line. Alternatively, this link failure might indicate a bug in GHCi. If you suspect the latter, please send a bug report to:
