GHC's parser is over-generous by design. See
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Commentary/Compiler/Parser. A
precise description of what is valid Haskell it is certainly NOT, but
it will certainly accept any valid Haskell program. This may not be
quite what you want for an IDE - but it might be good enough for a
first cut.
