Yikes, that's really bad! Bad enough that I have to wonder: would it<br>
be worth including genlib among the other executables that we bundle<br>
with GHC? Fortunately, us GHC developers have the foresight to know<br>
that we should install genlib, but I imagine less informed Windows<br>
users probably won't get the memo and will start to wonder why<br>
compilation became so slow all of a sudden.<br>
