hsc2hs sometimes fails with error "Permission denied" in Windows.  This is
 because it tries to remove a file it has open handle to.  The error
 usually repeats per-machine and file, but what file and machine it shows
 up with, is random.

 As a workaround, calls to removeFile can be removed, or exceptions
 catched.
