I think that the Basis spec is still ambiguous about the following point,
but I feel that the following should not type-check:
val f = LargeInt.~ o IntInf.~
val x = (LargeInt.fromInt 1) + (IntInf.fromInt 1)
As was pointed out before, this seems to arise because we need the opaque
signature matches further back in the basis implementation.
