OK, so I failed to read the Library Report. It clearly states:
An implementation is entitled to assume the following laws about these operations:
range (l,u) !! index (l,u) i == i -- when i is in range inRange (l,u) i == i `elem` range (l,u)
So my "bug" is only in my mind. Sorry for bothering everyone.
I don't think it's quite as straight-forward as that. Hugs and ghc may conform to the Library Report, but the behaviour is still undesirable, and IMHO should be fixed. -- Fergus Henderson <fjh@cs.mu.oz.au> | "I have always known that the pursuit | of excellence is a lethal habit" WWW: <http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/~fjh> | -- the last words of T.
