Comment:

 "type instance where" was old notation for closed type families before
 commit 569b26526403df4d88fe2a6d64c7dade09d003ad (Revise implementation of
 overlapping type family instances, 21/6/2013). This commit changed the
 syntax to

 {{{
 type family F a where
   F Int = Bool
 }}}

 I can reproduce the file-ending newline bug with old syntax before the
 commit but not with new syntax afterwards. I can't tell how the parser
 changes made this happen, but it seems it's safe to close this bug.
