Since you're filing bug reports about code that hasn't even shipped yet, I'd think the task falls upon you to check this :) Do you mind building GHC HEAD from `master` and seeing if this bug can be reproduced from there as well? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15804#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

However it has turned into a truly major refactoring of the kind inference engine. Let's deal with the level-numbers part first: * Augment quantifyTyVars to calculate the type variables to quantify using level numbers, and compare the result with the existing approach. That is; no change in behaviour, just a WARNing if the two approaches give different answers. * To do this I had to get the level number right when calling quantifyTyVars, and this entailed a bit of care, especially in the code for kind-checking type declarations. * However, on the way I was able to eliminate or simplify a number of calls to solveEqualities. This work is incomplete: I'm not /using/ level numbers yet. When I subsequently get rid of any remaining WARNings in quantifyTyVars, that the level-number answers differ from the current answers, then I can rip out the current "free vars of the environment" stuff. Anyway, this led me into deep dive into kind inference for type and class declarations, which is an increasingly soggy part of GHC. Richard already did some good work recently in commit 5e45ad10ffca1ad175b10f6ef3327e1ed8ba25f3 Date: Thu Sep 13 09:56:02 2018 +0200 Finish fix for #14880. The real change that fixes the ticket is described in Note [Naughty quantification candidates] in TcMType. but I kept turning over stones. So this patch has ended up with a pretty significant refactoring of that code too. Kind inference for types and classes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * Major refactoring in the way we generalise the inferred kind of a TyCon, in kcTyClGroup. Indeed, I made it into a new top-level function, generaliseTcTyCon. Plus a new Note to explain it Note [Inferring kinds for type declarations]. * We decided (Trac #15592) not to treat class type variables specially when dealing with Inferred/Specified/Required for associated types. That simplifies things quite a bit. I also rewrote Note [Required, Specified, and Inferred for types] * Major refactoring of the crucial function kcLHsQTyVars: I split it into kcLHsQTyVars_Cusk and kcLHsQTyVars_NonCusk because the two are really quite different. The CUSK case is almost entirely rewritten, and is much easier because of our new decision not to treat the class variables specially * I moved all the error checks from tcTyClTyVars (which was a bizarre place for it) into generaliseTcTyCon and/or the CUSK case of kcLHsQTyVars. Now tcTyClTyVars is extremely simple. * I got rid of all the all the subtleties in tcImplicitTKBndrs. Indeed now there is no difference between tcImplicitTKBndrs and kcImplicitTKBndrs; there is now a single bindImplicitTKBndrs. Same for kc/tcExplicitTKBndrs. None of them monkey with level numbers, nor build implication constraints. scopeTyVars is gone entirely, as is kcLHsQTyVarBndrs. It's vastly simpler. I found I could get rid of kcLHsQTyVarBndrs entirely, in favour of the bnew bindExplicitTKBndrs. Quantification ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * I now deal with the "naughty quantification candidates" of the previous patch in candidateQTyVars, rather than in quantifyTyVars; see Note [Naughty quantification candidates] in TcMType. I also killed off closeOverKindsCQTvs in favour of the same strategy that we use for tyCoVarsOfType: namely, close over kinds at the occurrences. And candidateQTyVars no longer needs a gbl_tvs argument. * Passing the ContextKind, rather than the expected kind itself, to tc_hs_sig_type_and_gen makes it easy to allocate the expected result kind (when we are in inference mode) at the right level. Type families ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * I did a major rewrite of the impenetrable tcFamTyPats. The result is vastly more comprehensible. * I got rid of kcDataDefn entirely, quite a big function. * I re-did the way that checkConsistentFamInst works, so that it allows alpha-renaming of invisible arguments. * The interaction of kind signatures and family instances is tricky. Type families: see Note [Apparently-nullary families] Data families: see Note [Result kind signature for a data family instance] and Note [Eta-reduction for data families] * The consistent instantation of an associated type family is tricky. See Note [Checking consistent instantiation] and Note [Matching in the consistent-instantation check] in TcTyClsDecls. It's now checked in TcTyClsDecls because that is when we have the relevant info to hand. * I got tired of the compromises in etaExpandFamInst, so I did the job properly by adding a field cab_eta_tvs to CoAxBranch. See Coercion.etaExpandCoAxBranch. tcInferApps and friends ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * I got rid of the mysterious and horrible ClsInstInfo argument to tcInferApps, checkExpectedKindX, and various checkValid functions. It was horrible! * I got rid of [Type] result of tcInferApps. This list was used only in tcFamTyPats, when checking the LHS of a type instance; and if there is a cast in the middle, the list is meaningless. So I made tcInferApps simpler, and moved the complexity (not much) to tcInferApps. Result: tcInferApps is now pretty comprehensible again. * I refactored the many function in TcMType that instantiate skolems. Smaller things * I rejigged the error message in checkValidTelescope; I think it's quite a bit better now. * checkValidType was not rejecting constraints in a kind signature forall (a :: Eq b => blah). blah2 That led to further errors when we then do an ambiguity check. So I make checkValidType reject it more aggressively. * I killed off quantifyConDecl, instead calling kindGeneralize directly. * I fixed an outright bug in tyCoVarsOfImplic, where we were not colleting the tyvar of the kind of the skolems * Renamed ClsInstInfo to AssocInstInfo, and made it into its own data type * Some fiddling around with pretty-printing of family instances which was trickier than I thought. I wanted wildcards to print as plain "_" in user messages, although they each need a unique identity in the CoAxBranch. Some other oddments * Refactoring around the trace messages from reportUnsolved. * A bit of extra tc-tracing in TcHsSyn.commitFlexi This patch fixes a raft of bugs, and includes tests for them. * #14887 * #15740 * #15764 * #15789 * #15804 * #15817 * #15870 * #15874 * #15881 }}} -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15804#comment:9 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
