Comment:

 I think it works fine unless you have -fglasgow-exts.  If you use
 -fglasgow-exts, GHC uses (# and #) parens for unboxed tuples. This does
 indeed mean you can't give a type sig to (#), which is sub-optimal, since
 it clearly isn't an unboxed tuple.

 I guess this would mean fixing the lexer to recognise (#) in addition to
 (# and #).

 Simon
