If you mean restricted type synonyms (http://cvs.haskell.org/Hugs/pages/users_guide/restricted-synonyms.html), I think the constructor should be called RestrictedTypeSynonyms. :)
Or, if you mean something like data Dummy a; then how about EmptyDataDecls or VoidDataTypes? Regards, Malcolm P.S. nhc98 permits them by default.
