Description

This change to gen_contents_index: 

VERSION=`grep -i '^version:' $LIBPATH/$NAME.cabal | sed 's/.*[ \t]//'`

looks like it has caused this problem for SPJ on MSYS: 

cd libraries && sh gen_contents_index --inplace
haddock: internal Haddock or GHC error: Win32-version:: openBinaryFile: invalid argument (Invalid argument)
make[1]: *** [libraries/index.html] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2
sh-3.1$

Presumably the problem is that the sed didn't remove what it was meant to, presumably because the '\t' didn't end up matching the tab character in the file.

  * Fix gen_contents_index on MSYS
  On MSYS
      sed 's/.*[ \t]//'
  wasn't matching
      version:<tab>1.0
  so I've switched to
      's/.*[[:space:]]//'
  which works on Linux, cygwin and MSYS.
