You're right. Hugs needs to be told that the code is in an extended
Haskell, with popular extensions. Therefore, Hugs has to invoked as
"hugs -98". It seems -98 flag cannot be changed once the Hugs is
running. Incidentally, the previously posted code included rank-2
types -- which are flagrantly not in Haskell98. Therefore, without -98
flag, Hugs will have a lot to complain about.
