  Log:
  Eta-expand some higher-rank functions.  GHC is about to
  move to *invariant* rather than *contra-variant* in function
  arguments, so far as type subsumption is concerned. These
  eta-expansions are simple, and allow type inference to
  go through with invariance.
Why drop contra-variace?
