Description
Prim.Function has started coming out as Function rather than (->). This might need addressing in the compiler.
This isn't actually new behaviour. Pretty-printing of saturated applications of the type constructor (->) still work and pretty much always have, but partial applications of it (e.g. instance Category (->) or instance Functor ((->) r) have always been rendered as Function.

Research direction
Start by tracing how Pursuit pretty-prints partially applied occurrences of Prim.Function and compare them with saturated (-�>) applications. The issue does not name a source file or test; done means partially applied forms such as instance Category (-�>) and instance Functor ((-�>) r) render as (-�>) rather than Function.
