Comment:

 It's part of the Haskell 98 spec; see the last sentence of Section 4.5.2
 http://haskell.org/onlinereport/decls.html#generalization

 As Ian says, the `-XRelaxedPolyRec` flag lifts this restriction.

 I'll close the bug as invalid. But don't let that discourage you from
 reporting bugs.

 Simon
