 Hello. Below is a code, which works when using runhaskell, but does not
 work in GHCi.

 In GHCi we get following error:
 runQ [d| instance ( y ~ (t->t) ) => Member Vector y where member v = test
 |]
 <interactive>:19:6:
     Exotic predicate type not (yet) handled by Template Haskell
       y ~ (t -> t)

 code:

 {-# LANGUAGE TypeFamilies #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE FlexibleContexts #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE UndecidableInstances #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE FlexibleInstances #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE MultiParamTypeClasses #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE TemplateHaskell #-}
 module Main where

 import Language.Haskell.TH

 class a ~ b => HEq a b

 test :: a -> a
 test x = x

 data Vector
 class Member a b where member :: a -> b

 main :: IO ()
 main = print =<< runQ [d| instance y ~ (t->t) => Member Vector y where
 member v = test  |]
