 In section 2.4.5 "Type defaulting in GHCi" of the GHC manual
 (http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.12.2/html/users_guide/interactive-
 evaluation.html#extended-default-rules) the second paragraph says

 > `show (reverse [])` ... has type `(Show a) => a`

 which should be

 > `show (reverse [])` ... has type `(Show a) => String`
