I think I have finally understood what's going on. As Simon pointed out (that was the key insight) mapMaybeFP is referenced inside the RULE, but I'm working on the Lexer to remove old Haddock 0.x comments, and I suspect my patch broke the Lexer, so the GHC version on my branch is interpreting that rule as a normal comment, causing the aforementioned error. Well, at least I know the problem is just mine and that my patch needs improvement :)
Thanks SPJ!

Maybe you are compiling without –O (odd, but possible)? mapMaybeFB is mentioned only inside a RULE, so perhaps it’s regarded as un-referenced without –O? > > > > Simon > > > > From: ghc-devs [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Alfredo Di Napoli > Sent: 12 June 2014 12:31 > To: [email protected] > Subject: Getting error about unused instances during "sh validate" > > > > Hello guys, > > am I the only one to get the following when I run "sh validate"? > > > libraries/base/Data/Maybe.hs:139:1: Warning: > Defined but not used: ‘mapMaybeFB’ > > <no location info>: > Failing due to -Werror. > make[1]: *** [libraries/base/dist-install/doc/html/base/base.haddock] Error 1 > make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... > make: *** [all] Error 2 > > > I'm working on this ticket, but I can't see how that can be related: > > https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8226 > > Thanks! > Alfredo
