GHC 5.02 Win32

[Sigbjorn Finne]

Yes, non-interactive uses of the Win32 library appear to
be in a non-working state (at least with my copy of ghc-5.02,
don't know if there's been any stealth updates to the installer
binary.)

As a stop-gap measure, replace ghc-5.02's libHSwin32.a
(after having saved it away) with the one contained in

   http://www.galconn.com/~sof/HSwin32.zip

and try again. Hopefully this can be fixed in the installer proper..

(The cause of it all is that libHSwin32.a lacks a pair of _stub.c files
which contains the code that takes care of the window/dialogue
callbacks into Haskell).
