Comment:

 For a newcomer: the description basically tells you what to do. So this is
 more an exercise in getting to know the GHC patch submission process.

 Don't forget an explanation, as mentioned in comment:7. And a test, see
 [wiki:Building/RunningTests/Adding] (or look at some examples in
 `libraries/base/tests`). Read [wiki:WorkingConventions/FixingBugs] and
 submit a patch to [wiki:Phabricator].

 Good luck!
