[Haskell-beginners] gtk2hs [GIMP ToolKit]

I reinstalled Gtk* but switched the folder from Program Files (x86) to 
Program Files...

I changed all my environment variables to remove Program Files (x86)...

Unfortunately, it once again doesn't see the five original 
directories...see following:
     * Missing C libraries: z, cairo
     * Missing C libraries: gobject-2.0, glib-2.0, intl

Got me...it seems like the cabal system should know where everything is 
going to be installed - then it should only have a dependency on the 
environment variables if it can't find its files in the default locations...

Do you think it would be worthwhile trying an installation using Program 
Files (x86) rather than Program Files [remember, on my PC , when doing 
the gtk installation it wants to do it in Program Files (x86)]

Good weekend
