Typeable<n> classes

[Simon Peyton-Jones]

No reason in principle.  If anyone wants to add the Typeable classes for 8-15 that'd be fine.

|
| Hi,
|
| I've been trying to use `deriving (Typeable, Data)' on some datatypes
| with
| arity 8 and 15, but GHC has been complaining. There aren't any
| Typeable<n>
| classes defined in Data.Typeable that go beyond 7.
|
| Is there a reason for this particular limit?
|
| If not, could it be extended further e.g. to 15?
|
| Is this likely to let GHC derive Typeable instances for my data types?
|
|
| Thanks,
|
| Matthew
