There's no FAQ on this, since the answer has been changing. I don't have
windows, but there are at least a couple of darcs contributors who compile
it on windows. By the time 1.0 is released, I'd like to distribute
precompiled windows binaries, but that would depend on someone creating
them. I just experimented a bit with running ghc and mingw under wine, and
that avenue doesn't look promising.
Recently, I think things have been looking good on the windows front. I
think I've fixed the problem associated in this bug report, which wasn't
windows-related, except that the windows virtual machine had less memory.
It was just that darcs' handling of binary files was very sloppy and used
lots more memory than it should have.
