1) As Richard pointed out, the docs are under docs/users_guide, as
well as the release notes. Please feel free to elaborate however you
want on the feature and the bulletpoint for the release notes.

Hope to get around to these in the weekend.

2) The failures are indeed a result of your code, in particular:

  driver                 T4437 [bad stdout] (normal)
  generics               GenDerivOutput [stderr mismatch] (normal)
  generics               GenDerivOutput1_0 [stderr mismatch] (normal)
  generics               GenDerivOutput1_1 [stderr mismatch] (normal)
  rename/should_compile  T7336 [stderr mismatch] (normal)

Fixed these.

3) It seems GHCi does not support declaring pattern synonyms at the
REPL. I'm not sure if it's intentional, but if it goes in like this,
please be sure to document it in the release notes. We can file a
ticket later for supporting pattern synonyms at the REPL.

It's definitely not intentional and I have no idea why it would be so. Isn't GHCi a fairly thin wrapper around the GHC internals? Is there any wiki page detailing the differences in GHCi vs GHC code paths?

Thanks,
