 This code
 {{{
 {-# LANGUAGE UnicodeSyntax #-}

 id' :: ∀ a. a → a
 id' a = a
 }}}
 produces following error
 {{{
 /tmp/id.hs:4:8: parse error on input `∀'
 }}}
 However, equivalent code without unicode syntax gives a much better error
 message:
 {{{
 id' :: forall a. a → a
 id' a = a
 }}}
 {{{
 /tmp/id.hs:4:16:
     Illegal symbol '.' in type
     Perhaps you intended -XRankNTypes or similar flag
     to enable explicit-forall syntax: forall <tvs>. <type>
 }}}
