 According to the 2010 Haskell spec the following should be equivalent:
 do1 = do { let x = 3.14 ; return x }
 and
 do2 = let x = 3.14 in do { return x }

 But ghc 7.6.3 chokes on the first (do1) with "parse error on input '}'"
 On the other hand, if I use layout and set
 do3 = do
   let x = 3.14
   return x

 there is no problem. Also, the compiler doesn't complain if I insert
 "in" in place of the semicolon in do1 (but this doesn't seem to
 follow the spec).
