 Running haddock on:

 {{{#!hs
 {-# LANGUAGE PatternSynonyms #-}

 module Foo ( A(P) ) where

 data A a = A

 pattern P = A
 }}}

 Just gives a data type A with no constructors, and no mention of the
 associated pattern synonym P.

 Attached is a patch for haddock that prints associated patterns as GADT
 constructors
