Comment (by simonpj):

 I think the solution is not to be very delicate about how to place the
 semicolons for the do-notation. Rather, we should just use braces and
 semicolons for let-notation too.  At least for lets in do-notation but
 perhaps for all.

 Then you'd get
 {{{
 bar arg0 arg1 arg2 arg3 arg4 arg5 arg6 arg7 arg8 arg9 = do {let { x = 5 };
                                                             return x}
 }}}
 which should work fine.

 Anyone want to do this?  It would be consistent with the story for do-
 notation.

 Simon
