Comment:

 (See <http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/glasgow-haskell-users/2007-
 July/012873.html> thread.)

 I was realizing that I had a use where a group of function arguments had
 to be a single type, but I didn't want to introduce an extra possible _|_
 via a normal boxed tuple. Not sure it would have actually been possible to
 use an unboxed type there, but it would be nice if this part of it worked.
 (possibly some type-level `!` strictness annotations would be good for
 that purpose instead)
