Description

It'd be nice if `exeExtension`, `objExtension` and `dllExtension` were generated by a `configure` script instead of being hardcoded. We'll need to change Cabal's `build-type` to `Configure` to make this work, though, and I'm not sure if it's worth it -- it'll make bootstrapping harder, for one.
