#863: minor oddity in kind error message
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
Reporter: duncan | Owner:
Type: bug | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:

Architecture: x86_64 (amd64) |

{{{
import Foreign.ForeignPtr
data Foo = Foo {-# UNPACK #-} !(ForeignPtr)
}}}
Gives this error message:
{{{
foo.hs:3:15:
`!!ForeignPtr' is not applied to enough type arguments
Expected kind `?', but `!!ForeignPtr' has kind `* -> *'
In the data type declaration for `Foo'
}}}
This error message is fine except for the {{{"!!"}}} bit.
I guess this is a representation of the {{{ {-# UNPACK #-} }}} pragma. I
don't think it's relevant for the error message so should probably not be
included.
Both 6.4.2 and current 6.5 do this.
