No. I'll switch that on and report back.

Thanks,

you need "liberal coverage checking", so UndecidableInstances. Are you doing that?

|  Let's rewrite with explicit kind variables, noting that b is also
|  poly-kinded:
|
|  class Dep k k2 (a :: k) (b :: k2) | a -> b k2
|      -- if a determines b, it surely determines k2
|
|  instance Dep k * x y => Dep (Maybe k) * (Just x) (Maybe y)
|
|  Actually, even with the kinds explicit, it still looks valid to me.
|  Post a bug report?
