First arg should be type Natural, then succ and zero. In dhall-haskell this is done here: https://github.com/dhall-lang/dhall-haskell/blob/235f38c8048c9a9fee7379d77fc55d179e0d107e/dhall/src/Dhall/Normalize.hs#L220

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I was initially a bit skeptical, because the type argument seemed pointless on first sight. But the type quite clearly requires it, and the example in the Prelude helps illustrate it for me:
dhall-lang/Prelude/Natural/build.dhall
Lines 11 to 19 in 17762d5
Good catch! 👍

Yeah, this change is definitely correct. The only reason we didn't catch it is because the code in question is not being exercised (yet) |

I think, I found a small bug in the specification of the beta-normalization.
The beta-normalization of Natural/build should apply
gtoNatural,succandzero.The first of these arguments is currently not provided. Compare with the dhall-haskell implementation: https://github.com/dhall-lang/dhall-haskell/blob/235f38c8048c9a9fee7379d77fc55d179e0d107e/dhall/src/Dhall/Normalize.hs#L220
