 The following code, essentially taken from the ViewPatterns page on the
 wiki doesn't seem to parse correctly.

 {{{
 mymap f [] = []
 mymap f (x : mymap f -> xs) = f x : xs
 }}}

 However, this does:

 {{{
 mymap f [] = []
 mymap f (x : (mymap f -> xs)) = f x : xs
 }}}

 (though it triggers bug #2395 about overlapping patterns)

 It would seem nicer to make the view pattern arrow bind ''tighter'' than
 any infix data constructors.
