Link option detection does not work for incremental builds on Windows
ghc on Linux embeds link options into the resulting binary in order to be able to tell when a binary needs to be recompiled because different link options have been passed in to ghc. This functionality is not present on Windows, forcing users to pass in -fforce-recomp.
