Hello,
actually, the bug here is that `f` is exported, as omitting the export list
is not equivalent to writing `module A` in the export list.

Hi,
that's an interesting example. To me this looks like a bug in GHC,
although the issue is certainly a bit subtle.
The reason I think it is a bug is that, if we name all the type functions
in the signature and apply improvements using the fact that we are working
with functions, then we get:

Hello,
The same oddity with type checking can happen in Haskell 98 as well:

Hello,
I think the "it may be confusing to novices" argument tends to be
over-used and we should be careful before we make language decisions
solely based on it. At the very least, when there is a suggestion
that something might be confusing to someone, there should be an
explanation of what/why
Hello,
I have been using the .ghci file with GHCi to set global options for
my project and I find it very useful. The kind of options I put there
are: where to put .hi/.o files, what warnings to produce, where to
look for code. etc. It works great. I was thinking that it would be
very convenient
Hello,
It appears that the instructions on the GHC 6.4.1 page for downloading
and installing debian packages are incorrect (see bellow).

(I use Hugs from CVS, so I don't want to install the Debian version)
I would also like to be able to update/remove any one of these tools
independently (I know enough abou
Hello,
I am not sure what GHC is doing, it certainly seems to be
inconsistent. In Hugs both the examples work. In case you are
interested, here is how you can get a version that works in
both Hugs and GHC (I just modified your code a little):
{-# OPTIONS -fglasgow-exts -fallow-undecidable-instan
Hi,
I am surprised that GHC performs these checks when started with glasgow-exts.
Your example works with Hugs, but your are probably aware of this.
Just to support your case, I have also run into this problem,
but I still use hugs for prototyping so I didn't even notice that GHC
is so strict.
