  Let X be a connected normal complex space of dimension n>=2 which is
(n-1)-complete, and let p: M -> X be a resolution of singularities. By use of
Takegoshi's generalization of the Grauert-Riemenschneider vanishing theorem, we
deduce H^1_{cpt}(M,O)=0, which in turn implies Hartogs' extension theorem on X
by the d-bar-technique of Ehrenpreis.
