Comment (by simonpj):
> I'd be content with just this,
That's what I was suggesting when I said "I suppose that we could say that
when the instantiated method type precisely matches the user-specified
signature, then we just match things up in the obvious way."
But GHC currently does the more general thing which, I bet, someone
someday will report as a bug if we insist on a precise match.
