Small.  We would undoubtedly like to support MPTC + fundeps, but

  (a) the structure of nhc98's type engine is somewhat obscure (for instance
      it appears to lack kind inference), and it might be easier to replace
      than to modify;
  (b) no-one has yet volunteered the time needed.

Regards,
    Malcolm
