UndecidableInstances not needed for equality constraints
Consider
instance (Op c, In c ~ Int) => Op (D2 c) where ...
Without -XUndecidableInstaces we get
undec.hs:21:0:
Constraint is no smaller than the instance head
in the constraint: In c ~ Int
(Use -XUndecidableInstances to permit this)
But the undecidable-instance check is only needed for class constraints I think, so GHC is being over conservative. Let's fix this.
