There was also a Show instance for CallStack in 7.10.2, is there a reason to want that? I think not, because the user shouldn't care about the representation. If you want a machine-readable formatting of a CallStack you can use `getCallStack stk` to get a list of the call-sites, which is then Showable (assuming a Show SrcLoc instance). -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11510#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
