 If I understand [http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/7.6.2/html/users_guide
 /type-class-extensions.html#class-method-types this paragraph] of the GHC
 manual correctly, the following code should be rejected in Haskell 98
 mode:

 {{{
 {-# LANGUAGE Haskell98 #-}

 module Main where

 class Compare a where
   comp :: Eq a => a -> a -> Bool
 }}}

 However, it compiles fine for me both with 7.4.2 and 7.6.1.
