Incorrect Read deriving for MagicHash constructors
Greetings,
A fellow in #haskell on freenode just discovered the following bug:
{-# LANGUAGE MagicHash #-}
data Note = A# deriving (Show, Read)
show works fine, but read doesn't:
*Main> show A#
"A#"
*Main> read (show A#)
*** Exception: Prelude.read: no parse
Probably not a surprising omission, and hopefully not difficult to fix.
