Comment:

 Well to be fair the manual says explicitly "Note that pattern splices are
 not supported. " (http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/users_guide
 /template-haskell.html).

 But see my proposal for Template Haskell
 http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/blog/Template%20Haskell%20Proposal,
 which would support pattern splices.  I totally lack cycles to act upon
 it.

 Simon
