#11993: RFC, allow local bindings in pattern synonyms -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Iceland_jack | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: | PatternSynonyms Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by mpickering): I don't think this is a terrible idea but it does mean that the overloaded `where` could also be used in a non-overloaded way. I'm inclined to say that we should leave things as they are for now. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11993#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
