I don't know about wine.

But we know XP's 0xc0150002 error. Please install Microsoft Visual C++ 2005
SP1 Redistributable Package. You can fix problem by this way.

And John Lask pointed out where is a wrong. So, I fixed that in the darcs
repository.

We hope that above problem is fixed completely and people doesn't cause
same problem in the next binary release.

wxHaskell requires to use cygwin when building on Windows currently. 
Because Cabal doesn't support binary distribution yet. If you want to
build wxHaskell yourself on Windows, you must install cygwin.

And I'm finding where causes this problem now.

And there is a lot of incompatibility between cygwin and MSYS. We
don't care about that now.
