Comment(by NeilMitchell):

 The error message that was added was "Operator application with a non-
 variable operator" - I got that error message and was very confused (I
 resorted to reading the source code to figure out what it meant). I think
 it would be far clearer if it read "Infix application with a non-variable
 operator" - OpApp is an internal GHC detail which users of Template
 Haskell aren't aware of - they will have written InfixE.
