It really ought to say
unexpected newline
but it's not because it's getting ' ' '\n' rather than the single character which would trigger the special case in Technique.Failure. Not sure what to do about it; this is going to be intimately tied to the space consuming code in Technique.Parser. That space character should have been discarded, leaving unexpected newline?
