Multiline input (‘:set +m’) terminated by trailing whitespace
$ ghci -ignore-dot-ghci
GHCi, version 8.0.1: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help
Prelude> :set +m
Prelude> let
Prelude| a :: Int
Prelude| a = 5

works fine with multiline input, but if you add one trailing space it immediately terminates the input
Prelude> let
Prelude| a :: Int␣
<interactive>:11:1: error:
The type signature for ‘a’ lacks an accompanying binding
I don't know if this is the desired behavior but this means I can't copy/paste code into GHCi that has a trailing whitespace.
