That's a bug, in either GHC 6.7.x (please specify the date if you can,
6.7 is a pretty wide range!) or regex-tdfa.
Does {-# OPTIONS_GHC -cpp #-} (theoretically equivalent) work?
What's the error message?

Ick. {-# OPTIONS is very strongly deprecated, since it doesn't specify
a compiler but must use a compiler-specific syntax. Much better to use
LANGUAGE:
{-# LANGUAGE GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving #-}

That won't work; you must indent continuation lines.
