Original description

Currently Stack is using MinGW32/MinGW64 under Windows to cope with C/C++/Fortran dependencies. Stack + Nix is a great tandem that could be turned into very easy to deploy system on most major operating systems. That way Haskell will become even more popular language. Currently Nix support Linux and Mac OS only.
What you think over the idea to use MinGW tooling in combination with Nix for building C/C++ dependencies under Windows?
