S1 is easy enough; I added that in.

S0 takes some more thought as there's more than one way to do that. I
could use EmptyDataDecls or do it more like ekmett's Data.Void. Then
what do you get for, e.g., partitionS0?
partitionS0 :: [S0] -> ()
I suppose that makes sense if you look at partition as returning the
same number of lists as there are type variables. No type variables,
no lists. Or should it be
partitionS0 :: [S0] -> Void
which also makes me wonder if this is a special case better left to Data.Void.
Thoughts?
