  It depends on the C compiler. Some come bundled with OpenGL libraries.

  C++ is a bit better in this regard. Just because of the C++ standard,
compilers have to come with tons of libraries. And often they come with
tons of third-party libraries as well (eg. the boost library collection
is usually bundled with most linux systems alongside gcc).

  I think one of Haskell's major problems is that nobody has made an
advanced compiler for Windows, and the existing Haskell compilers only
rely on inconvenient cygwin ports.
