Comment:

 Thanks for your report! This fails with the expected errors under 8.2.1,
 {{{

 hi.hs:1:1: error:
     The IO action ‘main’ is not defined in module ‘Main’
   |
 1 | import Data.Char
   | ^

 hi.hs:10:23: error:
     Variable not in scope:
       action
         :: Main.InvoiceStruct
            -> [Main.InvoiceStruct -> Int] -> Int -> Main.InvoiceStruct
    |
 10 | invoice i comp val = (action) i[total] val
    |                       ^^^^^^
 }}}

 It's not entirely clear what fixed this but it's unlikely that we will
 release a 8.0.3 so I'm going to close this for now.
