is not it possible to use the same trick as i used to include Win32
package only in windows builds of Streams library. here is the
Setup.hs that does this trick:

-- This custom Cabal build script adds "Win32" package to the list of
-- dependencies if we build on the Windows platform

import qualified System.Info
import Data.List
import Distribution.Simple
import Distribution.Simple.Utils
import Distribution.PackageDescription

main = do pkg_descr_file <- defaultPackageDesc
          pkg_descr      <- readPackageDescription pkg_descr_file
          let isWindows = "mingw" `isPrefixOf` System.Info.os
              config = if isWindows
                         then pkg_descr { buildDepends = Dependency "Win32" AnyVersion
                                                       : buildDepends pkg_descr }
                         else pkg_descr
          defaultMainNoRead config
