Comment(by dominiquedevriese):

 Oh, I forgot to say: the problem seems to be that GHC doesn't notice that
 there is no instance for Monad RecDecParser when I define the instance
 MonadPlus RecDecParser. The problem strangely disappears if I remove the
 type annotation on f in the Test instance for unrelated PrintRuleInterp.
