 While cleaning up
 [https://github.com/ghc/ghc/blob/64c9898f7b5239435f131f5444d62bda23dfc9ef/compiler/parser/Lexer.x#L110
 Lexer.x] a few months ago, I tried to change:
 {{{
 $white_no_nl = $whitechar # \n
 }}}
 To:
 {{{
 $white_no_nl = $whitechar # $nl
 }}}

 That didn't validate, and I didn't quite understand what was going on, so
 I left it at that. I did add a TODO, because I thought it might be related
 to this ticket.

 To whomever fixes this bug: please also remove that TODO, especially if
 that line turns out to be fine the way it is.
