Comment:

 Had a user bitten by this one today:

 {{{
 {-# LANGUAGE FlexibleInstances, MultiParamTypeClasses, TypeFamilies #-}
 module Test where

 import Control.Lens

 newtype A a = A a deriving (Show)

 asA  :: Iso' a (A a)
 asA = iso A $ \(A x) -> x

 f :: (Ord a, Eq a) => a -> [(a,b)] -> Maybe b
 f _ _ = Nothing
 ‗‗
 type instance Index (A a) = a

 instance (Gettable f, Ord a) => Contains f (A a) where
   contains = containsLookup (\k m -> f k (m ^. from asA))

 thing :: A a
 thing = view asA []

 main = print $ thing ^. from asA
 }}}

 It causes

 {{{
 $ ghc --make Test.hs
 [1 of 1] Compiling A                ( Test.hs, Test.o )
 ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
   (GHC version 7.6.2 for x86_64-unknown-linux):
         cgLookupPanic (probably invalid Core; try -dcore-lint)

     static binds for:
     local binds for:

 Please report this as a GHC bug:  http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
 }}}

 on 7.4.1 I get

 {{{

 This http://hpaste.org/raw/83760 contains the result of {{{-dcore-lint}}}.
