Comment (by simonpj):

 > comment:3 talks about parking Coercible constraints in the insolubles

 Actually the `Coercible b (f b)` constraint is parked in the inert dicts.
 But the `b ~R# f b` constraint is parked in insolubles.  It probably
 shouldn't be.

 But in fact I want to kill off the insolubles altogether, and combine then
 with tie irreducibles.  I don't think the distinction pays its way.
