I encountered this problem when trying to compile NewBinary with ghc-6.7 -
here isolated it to a small test
$ cat Foo.hs
module Main where
main {- | num_bits == 0 = return ()
| num_bits < 0 = error "putBits cannot write negative numbers of
bits"
| num_bits > 8 = error "putBits cannot write more than 8 bits at a
time"
| otherwise -} = do
putStrLn "Testing parse"
ghc --make Foo.hs
[1 of 1] Compiling Main ( Foo.hs, Foo.o )
Foo.hs:3:5:
parse error on input `{- | num_bits == 0 = return ()
| num_bits < 0 = error "putBits cannot write negative numbers of
bits"
| num_bits > 8 = error "putBits cannot write more than 8 bits at a
time"
| otherwise -}'
make: *** [Foo.exe] Error 1
This problem doesn't exist in 6.6 branch.
