  * resolution:  => fixed

Comment:

 I don't want remove the pretty printing of {{{HsDocTy}}} since it is used
 by the test suite, to test that parsing works correctly. So I've fixed the
 pretty printing so that the comments are handled as if they were postfix
 type operators. Your example now becomes:

 {{{
 ([a] -> [b]) <document comment> -> [a] -> [b]
 }}}

 This is the patch (in HEAD):
