Comment (by Iceland_jack):

 I am not very familiar with `HasCallStack` but it is possible to go from
 `ImplicitParams` to kmett's reflection library, I don't know where you
 would call [https://hackage.haskell.org/package/reflection-2.1.2/docs
 /Data-Reflection.html#v:reify reify] but it may help:

 {{{#!hs
 import Data.Proxy
 import GHC.Stack
 import Data.Reflection
 import Data.Monoid hiding ((<>))
 import Data.Semigroup

 newtype WithClassStack s a = WCS a

 instance Semigroup a => Semigroup (WithClassStack s a) where
   WCS a <> WCS b = WCS (a <> b)

 instance (Semigroup a, Reifies s CallStack) => Monoid (WithClassStack s a)
 where
   mempty = error "No mempty!" where
     ?callStack = reflect (Proxy @s)

   mappend = (<>)
 }}}
