It is quite common in Haskell to name a variable with a single quote at the end (imitating a prime symbol). Double primes (two single quotes at the end) are also common. Sunlight doesn't seem to handle them very well. The following snippet of Haskell code

c'' = 'a'

is displayed as

''' = 'a'

with ''' highlighted as a character literal.

Treat ids with double primes correctly (fixes tmont#11)

Do not highlight identifiers with double primes as character literals in Haskell. The bug seems to be in an extra condition that checks if we are at the beginning of a character literal. The test file for Haskell looks fine after this change.
