Oh *man*... The more I read into this, the more I discover that Haskell 
is way, way more flexible than I thought! o_O

For example, you're allowed to give fixity declarations for local 
variables. I thought it was only permitted for top-level variables, but 
no, apparently every let-expression can contain fixity declarations and 
type signatures. So much for a let-binding just being a list of 
variables and what they're bound to. :-P
