Error building network package with cabal in windows 7 using n jobs

  • os: windows 7
  • console mingw64 installed with ghcup (but the same error is throwed using dos or powershell instead bash)
  • cabal, msys2, ghc installed with ghcup
  • motivation: build network to reproduce https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/7494 
user@computer MINGW64 /d/ws/haskell/issues
# cabal get network

user@computer MINGW64 /d/ws/haskell/issues
# cd network-3.1.2.2/

user@computer MINGW64 /d/ws/haskell/issues/network-3.1.2.2
# cabal build -v
this build was affected by the following (project) config files:
Build profile: -w ghc-8.10.5 -O1
In order, the following will be built:
 - hsc2hs-0.68.7 (exe:hsc2hs) (requires build)
 - network-3.1.2.2 (lib:network) (first run)
