Comment (by adamgundry):
Thanks! Indeed, those look like impredicative instantiations of `(.)` that
should require `ImpredicativeTypes`. I think we should keep the patch, and
flag up this issue in the release notes, although the error message makes
it fairly obvious how to fix the problem. :-)
Or should we be more concerned about maintaining support for existing
programs, given that this is a bugfix release?
