The following program compiles fine with ghc 4.04,
x = 1
main = print (x :: Int)
but when I try it with the "May 1999" version of Hugs,
I get a type error:
ERROR "bug2.hs" (line 2): Type error in type annotation
*** Term : x
*** Type : Integer
*** Does not match : Int
>From my understanding of the Haskell Report, I thought `x'
should be inferred to have the type `Num a => a', not `Integer'.
Is this a bug in Hugs?
