Comment (by simonpj):
'guest' writes "In the wake of the GHC survey Simon PJ asked for error
messages that could be improved. This is such an error message."
And indeed I have improved it:
{{{
Foo4.hs:4:0:
Equations for `f' have different numbers of arguments
Foo4.hs:4:0-14
Foo4.hs:5:0-14
}}}
It's nothing to do with the type signature, which might be absent, or
might have more args than the defintion.
Simon
