If the unboxed types are a problem for the automatic Generic derivation, a manual instance could be written instead.
As of recently [1], -XDeriveGeneric should be capable of handing unboxed types, so that removes one major technical limitation. I'm not sure which unboxed types GHC's API uses off of the top of my head, but if you need something other than Addr#, Char#, Double#, Int#, or Word#, it wouldn't be too difficult to add support for them.
