I don't understand that: in the type definition, there is no qualifications
for the constructors.

In Revised syntax, they are like in normal syntax, but the parentheses
are compulsory.

This message of OCaml just means that there are syntactic restrictions
of the "let rec". In this case, you should produce either a "let" without
"rec" or, an eta extension: "let rec print_t x = print_int x".
