Comment(by simonpj):
Well, I can't build hmatrix. I get
{{{

I get the same error if I use ghc 6.12.3 instead of my local copy.
With Simon M's help, I managed to get it to compile by hand, both with and
without -DVECTOR, and the error did not show up.
Um. I wonder if these patches are in 7.0.1?

* Ensure that instance overlap errors are report properly
This (annoyingly) requires us to re-flatten the class predicate.

* Ensure that unification variables alloc'd during solving are

This fixes Trac #4494. See Note [Extra TcsTv untouchables] in
TcSimplify.

Checking... bother, they aren't.
Can you try with HEAD? Meanwhile we'll think about what to do about the
release.
