[Haskell-cafe] incomplete-uni-patterns

It seems to me that instead of working around this, we should add a pragma
to suppress the warning at the pattern site. Maybe something like

let
  {-# PARTIAL_MATCH #-}
  Just a = blah blah

That way GHC can see that you noticed the partial match and that you're
okay with it.
