#8503: New GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving check still isn't permissive enough -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: goldfire | Owner: goldfire Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.7 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: 8548 Blocking: | Related Tickets: #8541 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by goldfire): Please push when ready. And, re `ScopedTypeVariables`, you're right -- we do need that extension. But, see [http://git.haskell.org/ghc.git/blob/refs/heads/wip/T8503:/compiler/typecheck... here] -- the extension is enabled just over the code that needs it. Thanks for taking the last leg on this one! -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8503#comment:38 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
