Patch applied; now it gives

c:\ghc\ghc-5.04.3\bin\ghc.exe: file `c:/cygwin/usr/local/lib' does not exist
make[1]: *** 
[c:/cygwin/home/Andy/hat-2.02/lib/ix86-CYGWIN_NT-5.1/hat-trail] Err
or 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/Andy/hat-2.02/src/hattools'
make: *** [targets/ix86-CYGWIN_NT-5.1/hat-tools-ghc] Error 2

Perhaps just a problem with the / instead of \ ?
C:\cygwin\usr\local\lib does exist ok.  Not sure yet what to hack to fix 
it...
