This program using the `derive` package:
{{{
{-# LANGUAGE TemplateHaskell, EmptyDataDecls #-}
import Data.DeriveTH
import Data.Derive.Enum
data Void
$(derive makeEnum ''Void)
}}}
produces a compiler panic:
{{{

Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
}}}
Matt Morrow has reproduced this in a ghc 6.10 prelease.
I don't particularly need a derived Enum instance for Void, but the error
message told me to report a bug.
