This doesn't surprise me; when putting it in the module, it affects only that module. When using either command line version, it affects *everything*... and what's breaking is not your definition of Number, but the ghci expression printer (which, being in IO, is doing something like (print it >> putStr "\n"). Since the command line option has global effect, the Prelude's (>>) isn't defined for ghci's guts either.
