ApiAnnotations : Nested forall loses forall annotation
When parsing
{-# LANGUAGE ScopedTypeVariables #-}
extremumNewton :: forall tag. forall tag1.
tag -> tag1 -> Int
extremumNewton = undefined
The parser attaches an AnnForall
to the second forall
, which appears as a nested HsForAllTy
.
Somewhere this nesting is flattened, and the tyvarbndrs are collapsed into a single HsForAllTy
. In this process the second AnnForAll
loses its anchor in the AST.
