Comment (by Frederik):

 Thanks for fixing that so quickly, that will be useful.

 I'm surprised that the s/In/For/ change is more difficult... I've had
 other people tell me that they aren't sure about the difference between
 what GHC means by "Expected" and "Inferred". I think changing the first
 preposition at some point to something unambiguous would be a good idea -
 "In" is not clear, and other prepositions, for instance "By", can create a
 meaning which is opposite to that which is intended.
