Indeed the evidence for `AllNullary` is not used, but its functional dependencies are. I don't know how to reliably detect that. I suppose I could not warn if the class has functional dependencies. (Or maybe if any of its superclasses, transititively, do?) Meanwhile I think we've agreed that this warning will be off by default for 8.0 so you won't see it anyway. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11474#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
