[darcs-users] HTTP support and Windows Build

[Jason Dagit]

Hello,

Last time I checked the windows build of darcs required an installation of
cygwin.  I think this was needed for:
* autotools
* http support?

Was there anything else that required cygwin?

Do we have any pure Haskell HTTP libraries that can be used without needing
any thing except GHC and an HTTP Haskell library?  Specifically, could we
end up with a statically linked darcs that doesn't require libcurl at
compile time?

If we have this HTTP library and the autotools ends up being the only
windows dependency, then maybe we could craft windows only static
autoconf.mk and src/Autoconf.lhs.

Thanks,
Jason
