Comment (by simonpj):

 Mostly it's a matter of not-printing the stuff added by the typechecker.
 E.g. not printing the `HsWrap` constructor in `HsExpr`; that is already
 suppressed (and sadly there is no way to display it even when debugging).

 But currently we do print the `AbsBinds` constructor in `HsBinds`.
 Probably we shouldn't unless some flag `-fprint-typechecker-elaboration`
 is on.
