Comment (by rwbarton):

 I assume `EqualF` should be `EqualS`.

 As long as we're allowing the full application of a multiparameter type
 class in a module with no extensions in the first place (strictly
 speaking, it should be a syntax error in Haskell 2010), I see no purpose
 in rejecting either of your functions in module `B`.
