21	Can't split a string literal	nobody	simonmar	"{{{
If I try to split a string literal across two lines,
using the syntax of two \ seperated by white space, I 
get the error mesage:
error in character literal

The code lines in question looks like:

    hPutStr h $
        ""GET ""++path uri++"" HTTP/1.1\r\n\
        \Host: ""++authority uri++""\r\n\
        \User-Agent: Haber/0.2\r\n\r\n""
