Comment (by simonmar):
Ok, I guess that makes sense if we're typechecking the concrete syntax
before desugaring. But I was using `MonadComprehensions`, and hence was
looking at that section of the documentation which says
{{{
[ x+y | x <- [1..10], y <- [1..x], then take 2 ]
This translates to:
do (x,y) <- take 2 (do x <- [1..10]
y <- [1..x]
return (x,y))
return (x+y)
}}}
So I found the behaviour quite surprising.
