Removing it outright in 8.4 seems to be a reasonably measured move and would preempt the need for this default. I'm rather inclined to say we should just finish removing it. Either way, we're now past the window in which we should do anyhing either way that would affect 8.2. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12970#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
