[Haskell] confusing language in report and a bug in (ghc|hugs)

[Cale Gibbard]

It works really well stylistically inside the do notation:
x <- f =<< xs

where you can view this as a process whereby each of the things in the
monadic container xs has f applied to it, and each result obtained
from that is then bound to x, so the data flows naturally.
