-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
The [https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/PartialTypeSignatures wiki]
states that
> As a single extra-constraints wildcard is enough to infer any number of
constraints, only one is allowed in a type signature and it should come
last in the list of constraints.
However the following program compiles with GHC 7.10.1
{{{#!hs
{-# LANGUAGE PartialTypeSignatures #-}
f :: (Eq a, _, _) => a -> a -> Bool
f x y = x == y
}}}
