This should work to install the deps, using libs from cygwin
- cabal install libxml-sax --extra-lib-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\lib --extra-include-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\usr\\include\\libxml2
- cabal install gnuidn --extra-lib-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\lib --extra-include-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\usr\\include\\
- cabal install gnutls --extra-lib-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\lib --extra-include-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\usr\\include\\

While the 1st line works, the rest fail oddly. Looks like lack of
- quoting when cabal runs c2hs and gcc, as "Haskell Platform" is
- taken as 2 filenames. Needs investigation why this happens here
- and not other times..
+ quoting when cabal runs c2hs. This can be worked around by
+ unpacking the tarball, manually running c2hs, and deleting the .chs
+ files.

+ However, then it fails:

Also needs gsasl, which is not in cygwin.
