I just downloaded the latest Haskell platform (I realize that ghc might not be up-to-date in this) for my macbook.  I installed it, which appeared to go without problems.  However, when I tried to update the package text, I get the errors below.  I suspect that the first error (not recognizing ' in a comment) cascades through the rest.    How do you suggest fixing this (other than getting Bryan do drop the apostrophe :-))?
