Bug description

Full_Name: Christian Skalka
Version: OCaml Windows interface 2.0
OS: Windows
Submission from: 132.198.10.25 (132.198.10.25)

If I write a multi-line function with a match expression beginning on the
first line in the Windows interface, copy-pasting a syntactically correct
function causes a syntax error in the copy pasted version. Here, for example,
are two identical function definitions and the interpreter's response, the
second definition having been copy-pasted from the first:

let f x = match x with

0 -> 0

| _ -> 1;;
val f : int -> int =

let f x = match x with

0 -> 0

| _ -> 1;;
Characters 2-3:
| _ -> 1;;
^
Syntax error
