Comment (by rwbarton):

 Agreed with what Joachim said, but moreover this falls under the purview
 of the Haskell 2010 Report, so a bug report of this sort should ideally be
 accompanied by a reference to section(s) of the Report that GHC is
 deviating from (in this instance, though I haven't checked, I imagine the
 Report specifies the behavior that GHC exhibits).
