Not yet on phab because I am waiting for the fix of #15138 to get merged. Will rebase and send the patches then. But here is a status report of what I have done 1. Added a testcase 2. Made the minimal modification that we discussed over IRC Unfortunately just 2 does not help as there is a overlapping instance error that is being thrown. I will investigate this and let you known. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15379#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
