Could you please have a look at the documentation issues
in the Windows installer before release? Points 4-6 in:

    http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/4292

    (documentation links in haddock and ghc-pkg no
    longer match current directory layout)

I'm somewhat surprised that noone else has tripped over
these in the current release (though I recall occasional
unspecified complaints about documentation links on GHC
and Haskell Platform mailing lists, so perhaps there are
related tickets?).

Also, assuming that Simon's patch fixes

    http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/4332

    (can't redirect the output of individual GHCi commands 
    anymore; again, on Windows)

it would be nice/important to have that merged into 
the release, as I know of no workaround.
