 {{{#!hs
 {-# RULES "eqString" (==) = eqString #-}
 -- eqString also has a BuiltInRule in PrelRules.lhs:
 --      eqString (unpackCString# (Lit s1)) (unpackCString# (Lit s2) =
 s1==s2
 }}}

 The problem is that the string at `(unpackCString# (Lit s2) =` is unclosed
 (should be `(unpackCString# (Lit s2))`).
