Hi,
foo _ = undefined
works fine.
Otherwise the poor little "a" has no chance to get disambiguated.
... Ambiguous type variable `a' in the top-level constraint ...

Hi,
Just out of curiosity (I cannot come up with a practical example):
Why doesn't the following piece of code type check in GHC (with
extensions)?
> foo :: (forall a . (Eq a) => a) -> Integer
> foo = undefined
It seems like the type-class constraint is playing a decisive rôle
here, since the following does check.
> bar :: (forall a . a) -> Integer
> bar = undefined
TIA,
