+%% Test case that results in a confusing warning -- created from a
+%% very stripped down actual application. The second case clause of
+%% test/1 cannot possibly match because all a-pairs match with the
+%% first clause. Dialyzer complains that the second argument of the
+%% second 2-tuple has type 'aaa' | 'bbb'. This is mucho confusing
+%% since there is no 'a'-pair whose second element is 'aaa' | 'bbb'.
+%% Pattern matching compilation is of course what's to blame here.
