I have to ask: how did you figure that out? I don;t see anything in the error message (nor in the code) that would suggest PolyKinds are causing the problem.
I was just trying to figure out what could possibly be different between the two cases. With !PolyKinds on, the empty-datatype method produces an extra degree of freedom, in the kind of the parameter to `Succ`. Seeing nothing else which could be causing difficulty, I thought !PolyKinds would have to be the problem. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9103#comment:17> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
