Deriving Show for Word#
{-# LANGUAGE MagicHash #-}
import GHC.Prim
data A = A Word# deriving Show
This works in 7.6.3, but 7.7 gives
Can't find interface-file declaration for data constructor GHC.Types.W#
Probable cause: bug in .hi-boot file, or inconsistent .hi file
Use -ddump-if-trace to get an idea of which file caused the error
The same file works if Word# is replaced by Int#.
