-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
 The "golden rule of indentation" does not seem to be strictly adhered to
 in all cases: there is an interaction between let/where clauses and do-
 notation that makes indentation requirements different in different
 situations:

 Example 1, parsed successfully:
 {{{#!hs
 f = let y = do
         Just 1
     in y
 }}}

 Example 2, causes an error:
 {{{#!hs
 f = let y =
         Just 1
     in y
 }}}

 Example 3, causes an error:
 {{{#!hs
 f = do
 Just 1
 }}}

 This behavior seems inconsistent to me.
