I searched trac for windres and found two tickets (including that one
above), neither of which seems to describe my problem. Here's the
(trimmed) output from ghc -v3:


Linking Main.exe ...
*** Windres:
c:\ghc\ghc-6.8.1\bin/windres --preprocessor=c:\ghc\ghc-6.8.1\gcc
-Bc:\ghc\ghc-6.8.1\gcc-lib/ -E -xc -DRC_INVOKED
--input=C:/DOCUME~1/bayleya/LOCALS~1/Temp/ghc1480_0/ghc1480_0.rc
--output=C:/DOCUME~1/bayleya/LOCALS~1/Temp/ghc1480_0/ghc1480_0.o
--output-format=coff

c:\ghc\ghc-6.8.1\bin/windres: can't open font file `for': No such file
or directory


You can see that my ghc installation is on a path sans spaces. Would you
like more information?
