Dict :: c => Dict c

This fails with
{{{
GHCi, version 8.5.20180128: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help
[1 of 1] Compiling Main ( /tmp/Test.hs, interpreted )
/tmp/Test.hs:16:10: error:
• Could not deduce (a, b) arising from a use of ‘Dict’
from the context: (a, b) |- c
bound by a quantified context at /tmp/Test.hs:1:1
or from: a bound by a quantified context at /tmp/Test.hs:1:1
or from: b bound by a quantified context at /tmp/Test.hs:1:1
Possible fix:
add (a, b) to the context of
the type signature for:
curryC :: forall (a :: Constraint) (b :: Constraint) (c ::
Constraint).
((a, b) |- c) :- (a |- (b |- c))
• In the expression: Dict
In an equation for ‘curryC’: curryC = Dict

16 | curryC = Dict

}}}
but it works by changing the type of `curryC`:
{{{#!hs
curryC :: forall a b c. Curried a b c :- (a |- b |- c)
}}}
