{{{#!haskell
{-# LANGUAGE TypeOperators, MultiParamTypeClasses,
ExistentialQuantification #-}
class a + b
data D1 = forall a b. (a + b) => D1 a b
data D2 = forall a b. a + b => D2 a b
}}}
The declaration `D1` is accepted, while `D2` is rejected. There is no
reason to reject `D2` except for shortcomings of the current grammar.
