Comment:

 Right, this is indeed not a GHC bug. Stack's resolver has decided to link
 both `Win32` versions `2.5.4.1` and `2.6.1.0` together at the same time.

 For stack advice it's best to ask on their issue tracker as you have.
 Alternatively is using the Haskell Platform and using `cabal`.

 I've closed the ticket as this isn't a linker bug, re-open it if you
 believe it is. (You can still comment with it closed.)
