The output should be "ab\ncd", including the double quote,
and it seems to be the right thing expected by the standard
prelude. "print" calls "show", which in turn calls the
class printing method of type Char. Tracing down, you'll
reach the function "showLitChar" which returns "\\n"
when the output character is "\n".

I tried this with 0.26. It generated desired output
containing newline character.
Oh, the monadic version should also work fine.
main = putStr "ab\ncd"
