If I say
{{{#!hs
{-# LANGUAGE RebindableSyntax, TemplateHaskellQuotes #-}
module Bug ( quote ) where
quote = [| if 5>3 then 'x' else 'y' |]
}}}
GHC complains that `ifThenElse` and `fromInteger` are not in scope. If I
then bring these into scope somehow, then the resulting quote does not use
them.
I think it's correct that the resulting quote doesn't use the rebindable
syntax -- a quote should just stand for a convenient way or writing the TH
AST. But then we shouldn't complain about missing rebindable syntax bits
inside of a quote.
