Description
Describe the bug
When building under Windows with the latest version of R installed (R-4.3.0) there are error messages while building H, namely,
H > ghci9.2.5.exe: addLibrarySearchPath: c:\Program Files\R\R-4.2.2\bin\x64 (Win32 error 3): The System cannot find the path specified. These seem to be warnings because everything works.
To Reproduce
Build HaskellR with the usual --extra-include-dirs and --extra-lib-dirs.
Expected behavior
Should be no references to an older version of R.
Environment
- OS name + version: Windows 11
- Version of the code: Latest

Research direction
No file or test is named in the issue. Reproduce the HaskellR Windows 11 build with R-4.3.0 and the usual --extra-include-dirs and --extra-lib-dirs options, then trace the ghci9.2.5.exe reference to R-4.2.2; done means the build emits no reference to the older R installation.
