#4356: type instance doesn't work when the type is (->)

Version: 7.1 | Keywords:
Testcase: | Blockedby:
Os: MacOS X | Blocking:
Architecture: x86_64 (amd64) | Failure: GHC rejects valid program
--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
This doesn't work in 7.0.0.20100924.
It works fine in 6.12.3.
{-# LANGUAGE TypeFamilies #-}
type family T t :: * -> * -> *
type instance T Bool = (->)
f :: T Bool Bool Bool
f = not
This is the error:
Couldn't match type `T Bool' with `(->)'
Expected type: T Bool Bool Bool
Actual type: Bool -> Bool
In the expression: not
In an equation for `f': f = not
