Windows not a supported platform? Installation errors

[liamzee]

Error: setup.exe: Missing dependency on a foreign library:

• Missing (or bad) C library: af This problem can usually be solved by installing the system package that provides this library (you may need the "-dev" version). If the library is already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the flags --extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where it is.If the library 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.

After cabal install.

Is this an issue with path configuration in Windows? Can I work around this with mingw? The problem with mingw, though, is that my CUDA drivers are on Windows.
