Comment (by simonpj):

 >  I thought it would be sufficient to typecheck each statement (group)
 separately rather than typechecking later statements inside the scope of
 previous ones.

 Yes; that's what I meant by comment:9.  seems to work, and much simpler.
 Validating now.

 Re unsatisfactory nature of the current story: I'll leave it to you to
 document the behaviour, and perhaps improve it along the lines you
 suggest.
