I started off with UTCTime, then switched to POSIXTime as UTCTime didn't have a Show instance. I've since found that actually UTCTime has both Show and Read instances, but they are orphaned.

Ashley, is it possible you could de-orphan the Show instance for UTCTime? This has bitten me a few times in the past since I normally don't import Data.Time (which would give me a Show instance for UTCTime) but use Data.Time.Clock directly. I understand you have to shuffle with modules a bit since the Show instance is currently exported from the hidden module Data.Time.LocalTime.LocalTime which itself is exported from Data.Time.LocalTime.
