Yes. Your solution works. Thank you. But:

Why Do I need this "msum . map return" thing?

The "map return" part is somewhat clear. But not entirely. Which
type of monad is created here?

The msum-part ist totally confusing me: First we create a list
with some monads (?) and then msum them? What is going on there?

Is the "x <- xs" in the list monad a form of syntactic sugar?

Ah, yes. This point I understood now. Thank you again.
