GHC now enables the `MonadFailDesugaring` extension by default, as discussed in [https://prime.haskell.org/wiki/Libraries/Proposals/MonadFail\#Transitionalstrategy](https://prime.haskell.org/wiki/Libraries/Proposals/MonadFail#Transitionalstrategy). This means that code that uses partial pattern matches in `do`-notation, such as this:
