Comment:
The error is now
{{{
parse error (possibly incorrect indentation or mismatched brackets)
}}}
which is I think as we're going to get. While we can see that it's
obviously a bracket problem rather than an indentation problem in this
small example, in general it's hard for GHC to suggest the right one, so
suggesting both seems reasonable.
