Order of declarations affects the correctness of reported error.
In the following code
f :: A -> A
f
data A = A
leads to an out of scope error for 'A', whereas
data A = A
f :: A -> A
f
correctly claims that 'f' lacks an accompanying binding, and
data A = A
f :: A -> A
f = id
f
produces that error that `f'
is used in a top-level splice or annotation,
and must be imported, not defined locally.
Finally,
g = f
h
f = id
Gives an out of scope error for 'f', not 'h'
