No, but there's a specific reason why GHC consistently refuses to accept your perfectly unreasonable code snippet :) GHC accepts the following perfectly reasonable code snippet: main = do putStrLn "Line 1" putStrLn "Line 2" let xs = do x <- [1..10] y <- [1..10] return (x+y) print xs Andrew Coppin wrote:

No matter which way I rearrange this, it *insists* that there's a parse error. This is very frustrating, given that it's utterly clear what I want...
