Comment (by thorkilnaur):

 Thanks to benedikt for taking up this matter (#2393). To clarify slightly,
 the present ticket is actually reported against the internal GHC version
 of the HughesPJ library. In the GHC source tree, the file is
 {{{compiler/utils/Pretty.lhs}}}. But the problem also exists for the
 HughesPJ library itself and is the problem reported as #1337. So the idea
 would be (as explained in #1337) to fix the matter in the HughesPJ library
 itself and then go back and fix it for the internal GHC version of the
 library as well. (I will refrain at this point from commenting on the fact
 that two versions of this library even exist. Ideally, the two versions of
 the library should be merged and GHC changed to use the external library.)

 Best regards Thorkil
