I can reproduce this error.  This is clearly wrong:

    $ cat dist/build/autogen/Context.hs
    module Context where
    context :: String
    context = context not available

The code responsible is Setup.lhs:context and I think it is upset
because neither release/distributed-version nor
release/distributed-context exists.

I don't understand why (show "context not available") doesn't end up
with double quotes around it (i.e. "\"context not available\"").
