The main issue is that the foreign call to ReadConsoleInput is not interruptible, and threadWaitRead stdInput isn't available on Windows.

GHC tasks which might make this easier:

  • 1198: hWaitForInput doesn't work properly on Windows
  • 2363: getChar, hWaitForInput et al can't be interrupted with -threaded (I'm not sure whether this occurs on Win32)
