Ugh. This is my fault; an egregious blunder in a (cool) clean-up of the type flattener. It's easy to fix (patch coming) but the bug is in the released 7.8.1. Will fix in 7.8.2. It just shows, you never have enough regression tests!
Will there be a "nightly snapshot build" for easy testing of the bugfix? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8978#comment:9 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
