Help --- type checker and I agree to disagree...

[Steve Stevenson]

I'm still experimenting with the deque I wrote about some time
ago. Now the type checker and I can't come to an agreement in one
module which we agree on the exact same construct somewhere else.
What am I not seeing?

Best regards,

steve

The code:

open Objdeque
(* See below *)
open Rtnppxsem
(* Has type definitions for (NoOp,Nil) *)

let definemacro c_inp = c_inp#hpop
  
let gpm c_inp =
  let nulltype = ((NoOp,Nil):semantics) in
  let h_out = new objdeque nulltype in
  while true do
    let a = c_inp#hpop in
      match a with
      | (Definiendum, Nil) -> (definemacro c_inp); ()
      | _ -> (h_out#tpush a); ()
    done;       
  h_out
