#8978: Type synonyms in class associated types behave strangely ----------------------------------------------+---------------------------- Reporter: joelteon | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: GHC rejects valid program | Unknown/Multiple Test Case: | Difficulty: Unknown Blocking: | Blocked By: | Related Tickets: ----------------------------------------------+---------------------------- Comment (by snoyberg): This bug has apparently broken a number of my packages, and I'm not certain if all of them can be fixed in a way that's backwards compatible with GHC 7.4 and 7.6 (both of which I still support). Would it be possible to release 7.8.2 with this fix alone, instead of waiting a number of months for the release as would normally be done? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8978#comment:10 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
