(the 'impossible' happened) (GHC version 7.6.1 for x86_64-unknown-linux): tc_hs_type: bang }}} Adding parentheses around the "Maybe Int" like this: {{{ data MyType = MyType { a :: !Int , b :: !(Maybe Int) } }}} is accepted, but it would be nice if the former example printed a syntax error or some sort of other warning rather than just a panic. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7614> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

They're now supported in function arguments, variables and type constructors.
