Lexical error when compiling unicode-prelude-0.1 using GHC 6.10.1 RC1

When compiling unicode-prelude-0.1 using GHC 6.10.0.20081007, the following error occurs:

PS X:\unicode-prelude-0.1> runghc Setup.hs build
Preprocessing library unicode-prelude-0.1...
Building unicode-prelude-0.1...

Prelude\Unicode.hs:68:7: lexical error at character '\183'

Lexing fails for the 'middle dot' character (\183). This is a regression, since unicode-prelude-0.1 builds successfully with GHC 6.8.3.
