Ramana assures me that HOL4 manages the assumptions of a theorem as a set modulo
alpha-convertibility. I had been suspicious because of the following  statement 
in the
Reference Manual description of DISCH_ALL:

        "Two or more alpha-convertible hypotheses will be discharged by a 
single implication;
        users should not rely on which hypothesis appears in the implication."

So is that a glitch in the documentation? Or does HOL4 offer some mysterious 
way of proving a
theorem with two distinct but alpha-equivalent assumptions?

Regards,

Rob.
