[Template-haskell] example of derive using Template Haskell?

I have {-# OPTIONS -fglasgow-exts #-} at the top 
of both modules.  Does that not imply -fth?

I do realize that my example is not valid Haskell 
code.  I am looking for an example of valid 
Haskell code that allows me to derive a class.

Or even just an example of actualy usage of 
[d|...] that works with GHC 6.2.2!

SO far I haven't been able to find one.
