[Haskell-cafe] ghc-pkg on Windows XP

[Jeff Polakow]

Hello,

  I have installed ghc-6.4.2 on a windows XP machine. However, the machine 
refuses to execute ghc-pkg (thus preventing me from using Cabal) and 
complains that "C:\ghc\ghc-6.4.2\bin\ghc-pkg.exe is not a valid Win32 
application."  Is there something obvious I might have overlooked while 
installing? 

Also, I am new to using ghc on windows and was wondering what are the 
trade-offs of using cygwin or minsys versus just living in a emacs shell?

thanks,
  Jeff
