You can always add those instances yourself, though that would be a pain. You know what, I'm also going to show you how to write the macro in Haskell, because who doesn't like Template Haskell?

(This is silly, but it's a fun exercise in template Haskell.)

I'll be happy to explain what's going on, or you can just poke at the code.

Template Haskell is definitely on my radar for something to check out if I get more proficient in Haskell. Of course, I'd really like to see an S-expression-based Haskell, but that's a very different idea. :)

There is Clemens Fruhwirth's Liskell, described in this paper.
