GHC 7.8 chokes on recursive classes
Type checking this makes GHC 7.8.3 loop:
{-# LANGUAGE MultiParamTypeClasses #-}
module Foo where
class Class3 a => Class1 a where
class Class2 t a where
class2 :: (Class3 t) => a -> m
class (Class1 t, Class2 t t) => Class3 t where
Does not happen in 7.6.3.
I think it's something to do with the Class3 constraint appearing in class2.
