[Simon Peyton-Jones]

Ha.  A long-standing infelicity, thank you.  I've fixed the HEAD.

	Simon, this could go in the 6.2 branch I believe

| # ghc -c FunnyError.hs
| 
| FunnyError.hs:7:
|      Couldn't match `Bool' against `[Char]'
| 	Expected type: Bool
| 	Inferred type: [Char]
|      In the definition of `b': b x "Foo" = ()
|      In the definition for method `b'
| 
| FunnyError.hs:9:
|      tcLookup: `FunnyError.$dmb' is not in scope
|      In the definition of `b': b = FunnyError.$dmb
|      In the definition for method `b'
|      In the instance declaration for `A Int'
| 
| 
| The first error is correct, but the second error message is most
peculiar,
| is it not?
