It might be desirable to have corresponding rules also for - exponents of other types, in particular Word, but we can't - have those rules here (importing GHC.Word or GHC.Int would - create a cyclic module dependency), and it's doubtful they + exponents of other types (e. g., Word), but it's doubtful they would fire, since the exponents of other types tend to get floated out before the rule has a chance to fire. |
