 If I try to make a multiparameter typeclass GHC (well, GHCi here) advises
 me to turn on {{{MultiParamTypeClasses}}}

 {{{
 Prelude> class C a b where
 ...
   (Use MultiParamTypeClasses to allow multi-parameter classes)
 }}}

 But if I try to use {{{\case}}} it doesn't give me a helpful suggestion

 {{{
 Prelude> :t \case (_,_) -> ()

 <interactive>:1:2: error: parse error on input ‘case’
 }}}

 Could it?
