There were two unrelated errors fixed here: 1) Make sure that only the *result kind* is reified when reifying a type family. Previously, the whole kind was reified, which defies the TH spec. 2) Omit kind patterns in equations. }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8884#comment:1> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
