 a) Empirically: Try locally 'git revert'ing

     383733b9191a36e2d3f757700842dbc3855911d9 

     and/or

     b5e8b3b162b3ff15ae6caf1afc659565365f54a8

     and see if your problem goes away, or

 b) Ask Simon Marlow (he either wrote or reviewed those two patches) if
    he sees something odd in those patches that could have broken
    Windows' GHCi...

Cheers,
