Eta-expanding `foo` works fine, though. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10495 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

This is just the MR biting. I'm not sure there is much we can do here.

But the error message is terrible -- there's nothing about untouchable variables here. A fix to the error message is on the way. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10495#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
