Comment:

 You'll need to have Qt installed, which you can find here:
 http://qt.nokia.com/products/platform/qt-for-windows/
 You can find qtHaskell here: http://qthaskell.berlios.de/

 In the qtHaskell-1.1.4 directory, I ran ./build and after building the
 necessary C libs, the build script errored out due to cabal not supporting
 the --make flag anymore for compiling Haskell code. According to the
 online qtHaskell documentation, at this point it was safe to run cabal
 install as an alternative, which I did, and which produced the issues
 mentioned above.

 If you can get qtHaskell to compile, there shouldn't be any reason why the
 attached program won't run for you. Also, I've since the initial bug
 report verified that the problem exists on both x86 & x86_64 OS X
 platforms. I'm not sure about other systems.
