| ghc -fglasgow-exts -fallow-overlapping-instances

|
| Jeepers! ReduceContext:
| `AttributeRepresentation2.HasCodedValue{-r8d-}
| value2{-aEu-} {-zddHasCodedValue{-aEt-}-}' arising from use
| of `Main.testValue{-r1-}' at TestAttributeRepresentation2.hs:8
| `AttributeRepresentation2.HasCodedValue{-r8d-}

|
| and so on . . .
|
| This is extremely odd, because AttributeRepresentation2 has
| no import list, and if I add the contents of the second file
| to the first it works fine.
|
| When do I expect my 8 cheques for $2.56 for bug-finding in
| ghc5.00? (Probably just after Microsoft goes into liquidation . . )
