Starting with line 605 it looks like


static char trie__doc__[] =
"
This module implements a trie data structure.  This allows an O(M)\n\


Put a backslash character - \ - at the end of line 605, so it looks
like

static char trie__doc__[] =
"\
This module implements a trie data structure.  This allows an O(M)\n\

What's there now isn't valid C, I think.
