You got it right. The issue is that in TagSoup.hs there is a line like
'parseTagsOptions (options { foo =...}'. That's invalid syntax AFAIK; more
importantly, it's using functions from ndm's TagSoup library. TagSoup, with
version 0.5, renamed the Options type to ParseOptions (we know the '(options
{...' stuff is intended to be ParseOptions because parseTagsOptions handily
comes with an explicit type signature).
So if you simply edit the file such that 'options' -> 'ParseOptions', you
should find it working for you.
(I did this against the Darcs repo of HXT, and things compiled for me then on.
I'm sending patches.)
