Comment (by ksf):

 Looks fine... to be honest, I don't care about the wording.

 Another possibility is discerning between the no-constructors and the
 reexport case, that is,

 {{{
 Warning: The export item `Foo(..)' suggests that `Foo''s constuctors /
          class methods are being exported from this package, but they are
          hidden by the export item `Foo' in Bar.hs:12
 }}}

 in addition to the current warning.

 I doubt it's worth the bother, though.
