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?
