Comment (by Simon Peyton Jones <simonpj@…>):

 In [changeset:"5d2fb2ee94fea4cf62ba767eb1555e42f4f21f46/ghc"]:
 {{{

 revision="5d2fb2ee94fea4cf62ba767eb1555e42f4f21f46"
 Further refine the test for 'given' equalities

 Trac #8651 revealed that my previous fix (itself in response to #8644)
 wasn't quite right.  The plan, using the CtOrigin to identify
 constraints arising from flattening, is described in TcSimplify,
 Note [When does an implication have given equalities?]
