Can't compile apps with the -fvia-C flag - Can't locate vars.pm

When I try to compile even the simplest application with the -fvia-C flags, the compilation fails with the following error message:

Can't locate vars.pm in @INC (@INC contains: C:/ghc/ghc-6.8.0.20070925/lib .) at
 C:\ghc\ghc-6.8.0.20070925\ghc-asm line 1289.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:\ghc\ghc-6.8.0.20070925\ghc-asm line 1289

the app I used to reproduce bug:

main = putStrLn "Hello, World!"

vars.pm is not present in older versions of GHC but they don't have this problem.

Cheers,

Olivier Boudry.
