Good point. I've dramatically improved the error message to:
Foo.hs:8:
Couldn't match `Int' against `[(String, Int)]'
Expected type: Int
Inferred type: [(String, Int)]
When using functional dependencies to combine
?env :: Int, arising from a type signature at Foo.hs:7
?env :: [(String, Int)],
arising from use of implicit parameter `?env' at Foo.hs:8
When generalising the types for ident

| attached program.

| $ rm -f T.o && ghc -c -fglasgow-exts T.hs

| Couldn't match `Int' against `[(String, Int)]'
| Expected type: Int
| Inferred type: [(String, Int)]
|
| The type error itself is correct: the type of ?env in the
| signature for ident should be Env not Int.
