[Haskell-cafe] installing Sqlite3 driver for windows

[Bartosz Wójcik]

I've installed recently hsdc-sqlit3 on my Windows. I remember it was enough to 
copy dll to system32, header .h to somewhere and key in path to both to cabal 
file. Then usual stuff with setup. It worked and I managed to access DB.

best,
Bartek
