as usual i suggest you to read http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/OOP_vs_type_classes
in order to grok type classes

when i have likewise problems in my Streams library, i've finally finished
with approach where bodies of default definitions are written as ordinal
functions and i just call these bodies explicitly when defining instances
of my classes. believe me, it's best one can do without selling his soul to
Oleg :)
