Comment (by simonpj):

 The error message is very confusing though.  It would be good if someone
 felt like improving it.

 Yes I agree about instances.  Should be a question of adding
 `DeriveAutoTypeable` (or whatever it's called) to the module that defines
 all the tuple types.  Would someone like to do that?
