 {{{
 data T where
   MkT :: (Show b) => b -> T

 --pattern ExNumPat :: () => Show b => b -> T
 pattern ExNumPat x = MkT x
 }}}

 GHC reports that `ExNumPat` is missing a signature (correctly) but it
 reports the wrong type. The correct type is the one commented out.

 {{{
 pstest.hs:12:1: warning:
     Top-level binding with no type signature:
       ExNumPat :: forall b. Show b => b -> T
 }}}
