Test tcfail032 is failing thus;
 {{{
 - tcfail032.hs:14:7:
 -     Inferred type is less polymorphic than expected
 -       Quantified type variable `a' is mentioned in the environment:
 -       x :: a -> Int (bound at tcfail032.hs:14:2)
 -     In the expression: x
 -     In the expression: (x :: (Eq a) => a -> Int)
 -     In the definition of `f': f x = (x :: (Eq a) => a -> Int)
