#9820: Apparently inconsistent behaviour in the presence of OverlappingInstances -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: kosmikus | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.3 (Type checker) | Keywords: Resolution: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Operating System: | Difficulty: Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Type of failure: | Related Tickets: #7296 None/Unknown | Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by goldfire): * related: => #7296 Comment: This is by design, for better or worse. See #7296 for an explanation. I'm sure the fix -- that is, redesign -- for that ticket and this one will be the same, but I think it's worth leaving both tickets open, as the examples are slightly different. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9820#comment:3 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
