-Termination test: each assertion in the context satisfies
+Termination test: the so-called "Paterson conditions" (see Section 5 of
+"Understanding functionsl dependencies via Constraint Handling Rules,
+JFP Jan 2007).

+We check that each assertion in the context satisfies:
(1) no variable has more occurrences in the assertion than in the head, and
(2) the assertion has fewer constructors and variables (taken together
and counting repetitions) than the head.
