problem with parsing (##)

I'm using the following setup:

> ghci-5.00.2 -fglasgow-exts

> :l Test.hs

where Test.hs contains just one line
===============================
(#) = flip ($)
===============================
This yields the following error
===============================
Test.hs:1: parse error on input `)'
===============================

From my understanding, -fglasgow-exts turns on an
extension
called 'unboxed tuples' and (# starts an unboxed tuple.
