Reading the source of Data.Tuple more, it seems that I misunderstood what was going on. GHC.Tuple [1] defines the tuples; GHC.Unit [2] just defines () [1]: http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/libraries/ghc-prim-0.2.0.0/GHC-Tuple.html [2]: http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/libraries/ghc-prim-0.2.0.0/GHC-Unit.html As such, this may very well be a bug somewhere, either haskell-src-meta, template-haskell, or elsewhere. May I ask though why you're trying to use (,) as an explicit constructor in a quasi-quotation? -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic ivan.miljeno...@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
