Comment (by flip101):

 Hi nomeata. When i started to develop my program i got some errors that
 some deductions/proof could not be made. Actually i don't remember the
 exact term for it and the exact error message. Anyway after asking around
 it was clear i had to put these constraints. I left these constraints in
 place while further developing my code and also using other packages. Now
 i tried to remove them again and i don't get any errors about it and the
 compiler speed looks good too (minutes, not days/weeks). I still need to
 verify if the program does what i expect it to do, but at least it
 compiles fast now. I think it's a good solution for me, but still a
 problem for GHC, so i will leave this issue open.

 Good job on identifying this issue everyone. It's very nice.
