Am I misunderstanding something, or is it a legitimate bug?

Looks multiparameter to me:

instance ... => Num (T a b Int) where

with T ~ (,,). Which is what the second line of the error message is telling you, more or less.

No, it's a multi-parameter type, but a single-parameter class.

Multi-parameter would be Num a b Int.

That said, it's not H98 either (ghc would require FlexibleInstances), so jhc may be right in rejecting in, just not explaining it properly. Roman
