 If I say

 {{{
 {-# LANGUAGE Arrows #-}

 (|:) :: Int -> Int -> Int
 (|:) = (+)
 }}}

 I get

 {{{
 /Users/rae/temp/Bug.hs:3:3: parse error on input ‘:’
 }}}

 Trying this with other operators, like `(|+)`,  works fine.

 The problem is that `notFollowedBySymbol` in Lexer.x is slightly wrong.

 I will fix in ongoing (mostly unrelated) work.
