Comment (by RyanGlScott):

 If removing them from `transformers` causes too much heartburn, I'd be
 fine with asking Ross to put them back. My rationale when making that pull
 request was that putting orphan `IO` instances in a library about monad
 transformers didn't make much sense, and probably belong somewhere like
 `base-orphans` instead.
