This incorrectly fails to compile:
module DerivingIntfBug1 where
{
class C a b;
newtype S a = MkS Int deriving C;
newtype T' = MkT' (S Bool) deriving C; -- works fine here
}
module DerivingIntfBug2 where
{
import DerivingIntfBug1;
newtype T = MkT (S Bool) deriving C;
}
$ ghc -fglasgow-exts -c DerivingIntfBug1.hs
$ ghc -fglasgow-exts -c DerivingIntfBug2.hs
Couldn't match `*' against `* -> *'
Expected kind: *
Inferred kind: * -> *
When checking kinds in `C Int'
In an interface-file signature for DerivingIntfBug1.$fCS
