-fdefer-type-errors doesn't defer errors from `deriving`
When I say
{-# OPTIONS_GHC -fdefer-type-errors #-}
data Foo = MkFoo
data Bar = MkBar Foo
deriving Show
I get a type error that there is no instance for Show Foo. This error should be deferred.
Using standalone-deriving works just fine, though.
