Hmm... Simon, was it a typo? Is it 6.10.x or 6.12?

Regards,

Type splices are implemented in the upcoming GHC 6.10.

| Also (sorry for the triple-post!) I noticed that in the TH
| documentation, it says:
|
|     Type splices are not implemented, and neither are pattern splices
|
| This means, while we could write a preprocessor that would give us, e.g.:
|
|     x :: Set Int
|     x = {1,2,3,4}
|
| We cannot splice in the right places to allow:
|
|     x :: {Int}
|     x = {1,2,3,4}
|
|     isSetEmpty :: {a} → Bool
|     isSetEmpty {} = True
|     isSetEmpty _ = False
