 * keywords:   => TypeFamilies


Comment:

 Here's a slightly smaller test case:

 {{{#!hs
 {-# LANGUAGE FlexibleContexts #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE TypeFamilies #-}
 module Bug where

 import Data.Coerce
 import Data.Proxy

 type family F x

 f :: Coercible (F a) b => Proxy a -> F a -> b
 f _ = coerce

 g p x = f p x
 }}}
 {{{
