Re `hlist`: I'm surprised this ever worked. What I usually do is to define the `UnPrime`-equivalent outside of the class (as a type family), and `Prime` within. I hadn't considered that there may have been GHC versions that would have allowed both to be defined within the class.
I used that technique several times after I found out that it worked. I expected that GHC knows what it does. :-) I am now reverting the affected definitions. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10009#comment:41 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
