[Template-haskell] RE: ghc-5.05 / template haskell bug

I'm about to take off to Redmond for a week.  Not sure when I'll get to
this,
but I hope I'll manage it sometime soon.  I hope it's not a showstopper
for you.

| ] Compiling Main             ( Main.hs, ./Main.o )

| ] Please report it as a compiler bug to
glasgow-haskell-bugs@haskell.org,
