Could you not view a where clause in a pattern synonym as containing zero bindings (unidirectional) or a single binding (explicitly bidirectional).
Yes you could, without looking I think this would require quite a bit of refactoring because of how everything is dealt with in the parser. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11367#comment:10 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
