 {{{#!hs
 {-# LANGUAGE ViewPatterns #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE PatternSynonyms #-}

 module Test where

 f :: Int -> Bool
 f (id -> a) = True

 pattern X a <- (id -> a)

 g :: Int -> Bool
 g (X a) = True
 }}}

 When compiling with -Wincomplete-patterns, this code produces an
 (incorrect) warning for `g`, but not for `f`. The only difference is that
 `g` uses a pattern synonym.

 {{{
 K.hs:12:1: warning: [-Wincomplete-patterns]
     Pattern match(es) are non-exhaustive
     In an equation for ‘g’: Patterns not matched: _
    |

    | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
