This breaks builds:

configure:2365: checking build system type
configure:2379: result: x86_64-pc-msys
configure:2399: checking host system type
configure:2412: result: x86_64-pc-msys
configure:2487: checking for gcc
configure:2514: result: C:\PROGRA~1\Haskell

configure:2743: checking for C compiler version
configure:2752: C:\PROGRA~1\Haskell Platform\8.6.5\lib\../mingw/bin\gcc.exe
