HSpec没什么不可以编译的

我正在学习Haskell，并且已经编写了以下函数：

safeHead :: [a] -> Maybe a
safeHead [] = Nothing
safeHead (x:xs) = Just x

我现在正在尝试使用HSpec对其进行测试：

import Test.Hspec

main :: IO ()
main = hspec spec

spec :: Spec
spec =

  describe "safeHead" $
    it "should return Nothing for empty list" $
      safeHead [] `shouldBe` Nothing

但这无法编译：

Error:(14, 19) ghc: No instance for (Eq a0) arising from a use of ‘shouldBe’
    The type variable ‘a0’ is ambiguous
    Note: there are several potential instances:
      instance Eq a => Eq (Maybe a) -- Defined in ‘GHC.Base’
      instance Eq a => Eq (GHC.Real.Ratio a) -- Defined in ‘GHC.Real’
      instance Eq Ordering -- Defined in ‘ghc-prim-0.4.0.0:GHC.Classes’
      ...plus 31 others
    In the second argument of ‘($)’, namely
      ‘safeHead [] `shouldBe` Nothing’
    In the second argument of ‘($)’, namely
      ‘it "should return Nothing for empty list"
       $ safeHead [] `shouldBe` Nothing’
    In the expression:
      describe "safeHead"
      $ it "should return Nothing for empty list"
        $ safeHead [] `shouldBe` Nothing

我也尝试过这个：

safeHead :: (Eq a) => [a] -> Maybe a
safeHead [] = Nothing
safeHead (x:xs) = Just x

但这仍然失败：

Error:(14, 19) ghc: No instance for (Eq a0) arising from a use of ‘shouldBe’
    The type variable ‘a0’ is ambiguous
    Note: there are several potential instances:
      instance (Eq a, Eq b) => Eq (Either a b)
        -- Defined in ‘Data.Either’
      instance Eq Data.Monoid.All -- Defined in ‘Data.Monoid’
      instance forall (k :: BOX) (f :: k -> *) (a :: k).
               Eq (f a) =>
               Eq (Data.Monoid.Alt f a)
        -- Defined in ‘Data.Monoid’
      ...plus 43 others
    In the second argument of ‘($)’, namely
      ‘safeHead [] `shouldBe` Nothing’
    In the second argument of ‘($)’, namely
      ‘it "should return Nothing for empty list"
       $ safeHead [] `shouldBe` Nothing’
    In the expression:
      describe "safeHead"
      $ it "should return Nothing for empty list"
        $ safeHead [] `shouldBe` Nothing

我不知道这是什么问题。如果我尝试其他类似的测试，则可以正常编译：

    it "should return the head" $ do
      safeHead [1] `shouldBe` Just 1
      safeHead [2,3,4,5,6,1] `shouldBe` Just 2

那么，这是关于Nothing自身的事情，它不能被平等地比较吗？您如何断言那会返回Nothing什么？还是我的功能太通用？

旁注：我已经看到与此功能类似的错误：

palindrome :: (Eq a) => [a] -> [a]
palindrome xs = xs ++ reverse xs

尝试测试空列表时：

palindrome [] `shouldBe` []

失败的原因是：

    The type variable ‘a0’ is ambiguous
    Note: there are several potential instances:

    In the second argument of ‘($)’, namely
      ‘it
         "should turn a list into a palindrome, so it reads same both forwards and backwards"
       $ do { palindrome [] `shouldBe` [] }’
