[Haskell-cafe] bug in Prelude.words?

[malcolm.wallace]

Does anyone else think it odd that Prelude.words will break a string at a non-breaking space?

Prelude> words "abc def\xA0ghi"
["abc","def","ghi"]

I would have expected this to be the obvious behaviour: 

Prelude> words "abc def\xA0ghi"
["abc","def\160ghi"]
