Windows build failure

Hi,

I've just tried building GHC HEAD using GHC 6.8.3 on Windows following
the instructions on the wiki
(http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/Windows)

I initially got a failure about cc1 not being found when executing
6.8.3's gcc, which I worked around by adding c:/ghc/ghc-6.8.3/gcc-lib at
the end of the path (i.e. last priority)

After this error I get a problem with include files, see the attached
log file. It looks like include files are going wrong between Mingw and
6.8.3. My current $PATH variable is:

/cygdrive/c/mingw/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/cygdr
ive/c/WI
