the Coercible class has a similar property, and I added the check to
prevent manual instances to checkValidInstance in TcValidity:
https://github.com/nomeata/ghc/commit/5e3f13
while you did it in tcInstDecls1 in TcInstDecls:
http://git.haskell.org/?p=ghc.git;a=commitdiff;h=5335e56953c4bbe18166039c06256e725f074b64
I’m happy to follow suite if you tell me that TcInstDecls is indeed the
better spot for such a check.
Greetings,
Joachim
