------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
As it stands GHCi cannot evaluate declaration splices because all splices
are assumed to be expression splices:
{{{
> $( [d| a = True |] )
<interactive>:1:4:
Couldn't match expected type `Language.Haskell.TH.Syntax.Exp'
with actual type `[Language.Haskell.TH.Syntax.Dec]'
...
}}}
