[Haskell-cafe] adjoint of coproduct & diagonal

I'm trying to figure out the adjunction diagrams for the
adjunction where the diagonal functor is right adjoint to the
coproduct functor. I'm |almost done|, but the co-unit has me
stumped, because I can't figure out how the arrow at the top
can be unique -- it seems it could be either one of:
i_1 . [f,g]
i_2 . [f,g]
i_1, i_2 : C -> C+C
f : A -> C
g : B -> C
The net effect of [id,id] on the right is to blur out the
distinction. On #haskell, someone suggested there is a
constraint I am missing; I've poked around for a day and still
can't figure it out.
