GHC's error messages are often pretty bad, but they usually do result
from actual program errors that would make it into the executable if the
type checker hadn't found them, so they are worth it.  As you get more
used to Haskell, it gets easier to just look at the line number that the
error message points to, and figure out what is wrong with the code by
inspection.  The error message usually does tell you the particular
sub-expression that has gone wrong.
