Problems building via cabal/haskell platform core #361

Hi, I maintain http://github.com/tidalcycles/tidal, a popular haskell music library.

We have many end-users (most of which are completely new to Haskell) having problems installing it via the 'core' distribution of the haskell platform, because the network library fails to build. Here is a typical build error:

index

They assure me they updated the cabal config file with the correct paths as per step two here: https://www.haskell.org/platform/#windows

This error doesn't occur with the 'full' haskell platform, I suppose this is because the network library is already bundled. However with the latest platform release, there is no 'full' version. I'm directing people at the previous version of the platform for now..

I'm scratching my head over this one, any ideas?
