Comment (by RyanGlScott):

 You need to compile the program with `-fdefer-typed-holes` to trigger the
 error:

 {{{
 $ /opt/ghc/8.2.2/bin/ghc -fdefer-typed-holes Bug.hs
 [1 of 1] Compiling Bug              ( Bug.hs, Bug.o )

 Bug.hs:29:11: error:
     • Could not deduce (Unbox a) arising from a use of ‘zip’
       from the context: GVector Vector (a, b)
         bound by the RULE "stream/zip [Vector.Unboxed]"
         at Bug.hs:(28,11)-(30,46)
       Possible fix:
         add (Unbox a) to the context of
           the RULE "stream/zip [Vector.Unboxed]"
     • In the first argument of ‘stream’, namely ‘(zip as bs)’
       In the expression: stream (zip as bs)
       When checking the transformation rule "stream/zip [Vector.Unboxed]"
    |
 29 |   stream (zip as bs) = zipWith (,) (stream as)
    |           ^^^^^^^^^
 }}}
