Comment (by osa1):

 I was trying to update TH parts of user manual about which quotes can be
 run by stage1 compiler, and on the way I found out that tests in `quotes/`
 directory are currently not running under stage1.

 I tried this:

 - I run a test using top-level Makefile, e.g. `make TEST=T2632` in
 `testsuite/`.
 - I realized it's running using stage2 compiler. But the whole point of
 moving these tests to a new directory was to test them using stage1
 compiler.
 - When I tried compiling the test using stage1 compiler(I copied the
 command and replaced stage2 with stage1), it failed with this:

 {{{
 $ ./tests/quotes &&  "/home/omer/haskell/ghc/inplace/test   spaces/ghc-
 stage1" -c T2632.hs -fforce-recomp -dcore-lint -dcmm-lint -dno-debug-
 output -no-user-package-db -rtsopts -fno-warn-tabs -fno-warn-missed-

       Use -ddump-if-trace to get an idea of which file caused the error
     In the expression: [d| func = 0 `op` 3 |]
     In an equation for ‘decl1’: decl1 = [d| func = 0 `op` 3 |]

 }}}

 I also tried the same thing on some manually created simple TH code and
 they all failed with same error. It seems like there's a bug somewhere.
