+By doing `cabal install --only-dependencies -v3` I saw that the problem was that it didn't find `sys/times.h`:

+    cabal.exe: Missing dependencies on foreign libraries:
+    * Missing (or bad) header file: HsUnix.h
+    * Missing C libraries: rt, dl
+    This problem can usually be solved by installing the system packages that
+    provide these libraries (you may need the \"-dev\" versions). If the libraries
+    are already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the
+    flags --extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where they are.
+    If the header file does exist, it may contain errors that are caught by the C
+    compiler at the preprocessing stage. In this case you can re-run configure
+    with the verbosity flag -v3 to see the error messages.
+    Failed to install unix-2.6.0.1
+
+Is it normal that cabal use mingw's gcc (from the Haskell Platform)?
+
+If so, should the following command work (I'm not sure if mixing mingw and cygwin stuff is ok) ?
