If I grep through the GHC source, or do a github search[1]

It seems that HsVectInst exists, and can be renamed, typechecked, zonked, desugared.

But it does not get parse, and does not appear to be introduced in any other way.

Am I missing something? Should it be deleted (as hinted at in one of the comments?)
