Seems that I was wrong about what is written in the spec; I thought that the
type of literal was considered ambiguous until it was forced, by context, to be
something (such as assigning it to a variable, or passing it as a parameter).

So, let's make this bug more of a question about the language itself: Perhaps
we need to change integer literals to have their type inferred from context,
just like string literals.  IMHO, the code below looks pretty simple and seems
like it *ought* to work.  Is there a technical reason (other than just "it is
easier") why integer literals *shouldn't* be polysemous?
