--- Comment #3 from Josh Stone <jistone at redhat dot com> ---
Both of these are due to not using semicolons.  Whitespace is not significant,
including newlines, so write it on one line to get an idea what the parser
sees.

> delete a b = "b"
> delete a (b) = ("b")

The latter looks like it's calling a(b).

> foo["hello"] = 0 ; ++ foo["hello"]
> (foo["hello"]) = (0) ++ (foo["hello"])

Note the former required a semicolon to parse as desired!
The latter is parsed like (0)++, then side-effect-free foo["hello"].


We probably should output semicolons after all statements to disambiguate
things, similar to how we wrap all expressions in parentheses.
