Comment:

 It turns out that the patch
 {{{
 Mon Dec  7 13:08:50 GMT 2009  [email protected]
   * Tidy up deriving error messages
 }}}
 on the HEAD fixes the problem.

 Attached is a 6.12-specific version of the patch.  I have not applied it
 because it causes a dozen test to have slightly different error message
 output.

 Ian, could you
  * Apply the patch to the branch
  * Accept the error message wibbles (if in doubt ask me)
  * Add a test to the HEAD regression suite
  * Close this and #3834

 Thanks

 Simon
