I have {-# OPTIONS -fglasgow-exts #-} at the top of both modules. Does that not imply -fth? I do realize that my example is not valid Haskell code. I am looking for an example of valid Haskell code that allows me to derive a class. Or even just an example of actualy usage of [d|...] that works with GHC 6.2.2! SO far I haven't been able to find one. -Alex- On Tue, 11 Jan 2005, Lemmih wrote:

From the user guide: "You need to use the flag -fth to switch these syntactic extensions on (-fth is currently implied by -fglasgow-exts, but you are encouraged to specify it explicitly).", but you have to realize that your example is not valid Haskell code.
