Hmm. I think this problem is specially on Windows binary by using GHCi.
If you use GHC, programm may be compiled without following error message.

I saw this error message in other programs what GHCi on Windows call
readline
package automaticly. ex. HaXml program. (So I don't want to use HaXml
program
on windows.)
This is GHCi bug.
