error reporting for qualified fields

20 Aug 2001

      hi

i seem to have stumbled onto a bug in the error reporting part of
hugs.  here is an example:

[diatchki@limit Modules]$ cat hugsbug2.hs 
data T = T

bug = T { X.missing = 1 }
[diatchki@limit Modules]$ hugs hugsbug2.hs

it seems to only happen when one uses qualified field names. if the
field name is not qualified the correct error is reported.
