Comment (by ronwalf):

 In this case, (a) has the wrong kind (*->*), so trying that line gives:

 #WouterTest2.hs:396:39:
     Kind mis-match
     Expected kind `* -> *', but `a' has kind `*'
     In the type `Expr a'
     In the type `(Data a) => Data (Expr a)'
     In the stand-alone deriving instance for
       `(Data a) => Data (Expr a)'
