[Haskell-cafe] Syntax of 'do'

Watch out for rebindable syntax:
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/users_guide/syntax-extns.html#rebindable-syntax

At first reading, I thought that -XNoImplicitPrelude was required to
turn this on. But now I'm not sure: it seems that if you hide
Prelude.>>= and Prelude.return, that ought to be enough to make do
notation work with your alternative definitions. I'm not at home, so I
can't try this right now.
