Bug description

I don't know what you guys want to do with this stream of syntax bugs
I'm feeding you. Let me know if there's an issue.

The precedence table at http://caml.inria.fr/ocaml/htmlman/manual015.html
says that functor application binds more tightly than constructor
application. In the present implementation they appear to have the
same precedence:

type x = C of int;;

type x = C of int

let f x = x + 2;;

val f : int -> int =

C f 2;;

Characters 4-5:
C f 2;;
^
Syntax error
