I am getting exactly the same error on a Gentoo box. I've tracked it down to 
some awkward escape character sequence in the TOP variable defined in 
config.h.

The following patch makes it work for me, but I've no idea if this is the 
right way to fix this problem:

hunk ./configure 1385
-TOP=`echo "Directory.getCurrentDirectory >>= putStrLn.init.tail.show " | 
ghc --interactive -ignore-dot-ghci -v0 | tr -d '\r'`
+TOP=`echo "Directory.getCurrentDirectory >>= putStr." | 
ghc --interactive -ignore-dot-ghci -v0`
hunk ./configure.ac 66
-TOP=`echo "Directory.getCurrentDirectory >>= putStrLn.init.tail.show " | 
ghc --interactive -ignore-dot-ghci -v0 | tr -d '\r'`
+TOP=`echo "Directory.getCurrentDirectory >>= putStr" | 
ghc --interactive -ignore-dot-ghci -v0`

Regards,
T.
