Hi! It seems as the functional dependencies are not working as well as they should. Suppose I have the following class: \begin{code} class A a b | a -> b where foo :: a b \end{code} and then I declare the following type: \begin{code} newtype Foo = Bar (forall a b. A a b => a Int) \end{code} Loading this in hugs gives the following error message: ERROR HugsBug.lhs:9 - Ambiguous type signature in type component *** ambiguous type : A a b => a Int But the type is clearly not ambiguous since the functional dependency determines b whenever a is known. /Josef
