may be unsafe.
* `git annex assistant` has not been tested, is probably quite incomplete
and/or buggy.
* No XMPP support (needs a lot of C libraries which are available in
cygwin, but pkg-config does not list them once installed).
* Doesn't daemonize. Maybe use
<http://hackage.haskell.org/package/Win32-services>
or perhaps easier,
<http://hackage.haskell.org/package/Win32-services-wrapper>
* XMPP library not yet built.
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..
Also needs gsasl, which is not in cygwin.
