Comment (by svenpanne):

 I would even go a step further: Syntactically, pragmas are just comments
 with a special content, so the example in the OP **must** be accepted from
 a language lawyer POV. It is equivalent (modulo column numbers) to:


 {{{#!haskell
 module Hi where

 h = 0
 }}}

 From a developer POV, a warning would be nice, though. :-)
