Actually the rules referenced appear immediately above, so no reference is
necessary.

My original message was not suggesting a change to the report (though I
don't know that I agree with it -- i can see arguments in each
direction): I was primarily pointing out an infelicity in GHCs
implementation...

Out of curiousity, it's a bit strange that

 > data D = D !Int
 > myD = D {}

in invalid, but

 > newtype N = N !Int
 > myN = N {}

is not.

Not that I'm proposing a change...I just think it's od..
