Problem with linker on Windows 2000

[Sigbjorn Finne]

Hi,

the linker is telling you,  in a not too user-friendly a way,
that your program is missing a module Main which exports
'main', which is Haskell's convention for the 'entry point'
to a program.

So, instead of "Hello()" try  "Main" (or "Main(main)")
