e.g.
   (@@@) :: TypeSignature
rather than
   @@@ :: TypeSignature
,
and if GHC transforms the source
   a @@@ b = ...
into
   @@@ a b = ...
(which it seems to do sometimes),
then print
   (@@@) a b = ...
instead.

, I changed my mind, since those parentheses mean a different thing from 
normal and that makes parentheses' meaning ambiguous (of course this was 
already changed in HEAD for the better)
