You're right, it's invalid, or at least the REC gives processors which
label it invalid a good reason to do so.  We actually changed the
sForS a while ago to avoid doing just this.

There's no doubt it's at best misleading for this to be invalid, since
the two anonymous type defns involved clearly _could not_ be
different, but until we change the definition of valid restriction
significantly, as we have a requirement to do for 1.1, we're stuck.
