EmptyCase produces incorrect SrcSpans
If you compile the following program, you'll get a warning for f with an improperly placed SrcSpan:
{-# LANGUAGE EmptyCase #-}
{-# LANGUAGE TypeOperators #-}
{-# OPTIONS_GHC -Wincomplete-patterns #-}
module Bug where
import Data.Type.Equality
can'tHappen :: Int :~: Bool
can'tHappen = undefined
f, g :: Bool -> Bool
f True = case can'tHappen of {}
g True = case () of () -> True

Ok, one module loaded.
Compare that to the warning for g, whose SrcSpan spans the entire clause, as expected.
The bug lies in the parser—patch incoming.
