This is idle curiosity on my part about HOL Light: why are the constants that 
support set comprehensions defined in such a way that the parser has to 
generate an invisible bound variable? This results in surprising behaviour like:

# `{x | x > 9}` = `{x | x > 9}`;;
val it : bool = false

HOL4 defines set comprehensions the way I would expect (using a single constant 
GSPEC with type 'a -> 'b # BOOL -> 'b -> BOOL) and doesn't need to insert any 
invisible bound variables.

Regards,

Rob.
