compare and contrast:

>>> macros_parser = re.compile (r""" (\s+)=\"(\s+)\"$ """,re.VERBOSE)
(no error)

>>>     macros_parser = re.compile (r""" (\s+)=\"(\s+)\"$ """,re.VERBOSE)
  File "<stdin>", line 1
    macros_parser = re.compile (r""" (\s+)=\"(\s+)\"$ """,re.VERBOSE)
    ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
