Comment (by mpickering):

 I think this is the expected behaviour. From the user guide:


 > By default, the type-checker will report an error message for each hole
 in a partial type signature, informing the programmer of the  inferred
 type. When the -XPartialTypeSignatures flag is enabled, the type-checker
 will accept the inferred type for each hole, generating warnings instead
 of errors. Additionally, these warnings can be silenced with the -fno-
 warn-partial-type-signatures flag.
