 Hi,

I've tried to build ghc on windows 10 with msys. I've installed it with
stack as said on the guide. In the msys shell, after updating and
installing everything I've tried to run `./configure
--enable-tarballs-autodownload` and got the following error:

configure: loading site script /mingw64/etc/config.site
checking for gfind... no
checking for find... /usr/bin/find
checking for sort... /usr/bin/sort
checking for GHC version date... inferred 8.7.20181017
checking for GHC Git commit id... inferred
46f2906d1c6e1fb732a90882487479a2ebf19ca1
checking for ghc... no
configure: error: GHC is required.

I have the haskell platform installed (8.4.3), yet it can't find GHC and
I'm not sure if I missed something from the guide
