This addresses Trac #14265 * When reporting things like "'a' is a rigid type varaible bound by ...", this patch arranges to group the type variables together, so we don't repeat the "bound by..." stuff endlessly }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14265#comment:3> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
