[Agda] Re: [Coq-Club] [HoTT] newbie questions about homotopy theory & advantage of UF/Coq

[Maxime Dénès]

The anti-extensionality bug is indeed related to termination. More 
precisely, it is the subterm relation used by the guard checker which is 
not defined quite the right way on dependent pattern matching.

It is not too hard to fix (we have a patch), but doing so without ruling 
out any interesting legitimate example (dealing with recursion on 
dependently typed data structures) is more challenging.

I am also curious as to whether Agda is impacted. Let's try it :)
