haddock: internal Haddock or GHC error: Win32-version:: openBinaryFile: invalid argument (Invalid argument)

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.
