boot files...

[Simon Peyton-Jones]

You can't, I'm afraid:

http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/users_guide/separate-compila
tion.html#MUTUAL-RECURSION

To get the instances in the right place, why not just add 'instance Show
T' everywhere you find 'instance Putputable T'?

I'm not keen on adding Show instances to the main source tree; can you
not elaborate the ppr instances instead?
