Comment:

 Replying to [comment:4 refold]:
 Still occurs with version 2012.4.0.0
 I'm not sure whether what I'm seeing is the exact same issue,
 however, from my limited knowledge as to how the installer works,
 this issue is exactly what I have.
 To reproduce: download Haskell from
 http://lambda.haskell.org/platform/download/2012.4.0.0/HaskellPlatform-2012.4.0.0-setup.exe
 Run the resulting executable on a Windows machine (Tested on Windows 7
 and Windows Server 2008).
 At the end of the installation, a pop-up appears, with as text:
 "It looks like glut32.dll is not installed. You will not be able to use
 the GLUT
 library. Do you want to copy glut32.dll to the system directory?"
 Attached is a screenshot of the installer at this moment.
