Type families regression
Here is a small program:
type family F a b
type instance F (Maybe a) b = b -> F a b
class C a where
go :: (forall a. Maybe a -> b -> a) -> a -> F a b
instance C a => C (Maybe a) where
go f a b = go f (f a b)
The current head complains:
Could not deduce (F a b ~ F a b) from the context (C a)
NB: `F' is a type function, and may not be injective
Expected type: b -> F a b
Actual type: F (Maybe a) b
- 12.3 accepts it.
