Changes (by sopvop):

  * status:  new => closed
  * resolution:  => wontfix


Comment:

 Actually it can't be built on 7.0.3 at all, because fileSystemEncoding
 only existed in base 4.4.

 Closing because it's too much effort to fix it.
 But lots of checks in code should be cleaned even in latest 1.2 because it
 does not support anything below base 4.4 (ghc-7.2.1)
