Since you gave explicit types, x is bound to strict values directly; it's only
when no type is given that GHCi needs to translate
the constant per the Language Report to an invocation of fromInteger.
let x=23::Integer
is left unevaluated, too. I do not understand, how fromInteger may change
the state of evaluation.
