-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
The library documentation for {{{Control.Exception}}} includes an example
that does not compile in GHC 6.10:
{{{
Prelude Control.Exception System> do handle (\e -> exitWith (ExitFailure
1)) $ undefined
<interactive>:1:3:
Ambiguous type variable `e' in the constraint:
`Exception e'
arising from a use of `handle' at <interactive>:1:3-41
Probable fix: add a type signature that fixes these type variable(s)
Prelude Control.Exception System>
}}}
