"No match in record selector Var.tcTyVarDetails" with incorrect multi-parameter newtype derivation
{-# LANGUAGE GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving #-}
import Control.Monad.State
newtype WrappedState s a = WS { runWS :: State s a }
deriving (Monad, MonadState state)
Note that the 'deriving' for MonadState has the wrong variable name. It should be rejected with something like "not in scope: type variable 'state'" but instead this happens:
[pwb@rhuidean tmp]$ ghc bug.hs
ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
(GHC version 6.10.4 for x86_64-unknown-linux):
No match in record selector Var.tcTyVarDetails
