Comment (by bgamari):

 Unfortunately it is a bit tricker bringing
 a6f0f5ab45b2643b561e0a0a54a4f14745ab2152 to `ghc-7.10` than I was hoping
 it would be,

  * We want  a6f0f5ab45b2643b561e0a0a54a4f14745ab2152 (Eliminate so-called
 "silent superclass parameters")
  * Unfortunately this breaks the constraint solver (#10335, manifested
 when compiling `Data.Data` as missing `Typeable` instances)
  * This appears to be fixed in `master` by
 646866ff318d6eb8beeed98032644182dd9d997b (Fix superclass generation in an
 instance)
  * Unfortunately an approximation of this appears to already be present as
 7f24cdd63fbfd69a83f81e85384dc8cb7ef57704

 I haven't yet taken a careful look at able to the patches fixing
 superclass generation.
