Using lift with StateT and Maybe on GHCI
I was playing around with StateT and Maybe today and I run the following two commands (consider that TC == import qualified Control.Monad.Trans.Class as TC:
ghci> let g = TC.lift Just [3, 4] :: StateT [Int] Maybe Int
which led to a:
<interactive>:54:9:
Couldn't match kind `* -> *' with `*'
Expected type: [t0] -> StateT [Int] Maybe Int
Actual type: [t0] -> StateT [Int] Maybe Int
Kind incompatibility when matching types:
[t_i] :: * -> *
[t0] :: *
The function `TC.lift'ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
(GHC version 7.6.3 for x86_64-apple-darwin):
kindFunResult

Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
and

I'm just doing what the last line asked me. :)
