+Note [Silly Type Synonyms]
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Consider this:
type C u a = u -- Note 'a' unused
All very silly. I think its harmless to ignore the problem. We'll end up with
a /\a in the final result but all the occurrences of a will be zonked to ()
+Note [Zonking to Skolem]
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+We used to zonk quantified type variables to regular TyVars. However, this
+leads to problems. Consider this program from the regression test suite:
+
+ eval :: Int -> String -> String -> String
+ eval 0 root actual = evalRHS 0 root actual
+
+ evalRHS :: Int -> a
+ evalRHS 0 root actual = eval 0 root actual
+
+It leads to the deferral of an equality
+
+ (String -> String -> String) ~ a
+
+which is propagated up to the toplevel (see TcSimplify.tcSimplifyInferCheck).
+In the meantime `a' is zonked and quantified to form `evalRHS's signature.
+This has the *side effect* of also zonking the `a' in the deferred equality
+(which at this point is being handed around wrapped in an implication
+constraint).
+
+Finally, the equality (with the zonked `a') will be handed back to the
+simplifier by TcRnDriver.tcRnSrcDecls calling TcSimplify.tcSimplifyTop.
+If we zonk `a' with a regular type variable, we will have this regular type
+variable now floating around in the simplifier, which in many places assumes to
+only see proper TcTyVars.
+
+We can avoid this problem by zonking with a skolem. The skolem is rigid
+(which we requirefor a quantified variable), but is still a TcTyVar that the
+simplifier knows how to deal with.

-\subsection{Checking type instance well-formedness and termination}
+ Checking the context of a derived instance declaration
+%* *
+%************************************************************************
+
+Note [Exotic derived instance contexts]
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+In a 'derived' instance declaration, we *infer* the context. It's a
+bit unclear what rules we should apply for this; the Haskell report is
+silent. Obviously, constraints like (Eq a) are fine, but what about
+ data T f a = MkT (f a) deriving( Eq )
+where we'd get an Eq (f a) constraint. That's probably fine too.
+
+One could go further: consider
+ data T a b c = MkT (Foo a b c) deriving( Eq )
+ instance (C Int a, Eq b, Eq c) => Eq (Foo a b c)
+
+Notice that this instance (just) satisfies the Paterson termination
+conditions. Then we *could* derive an instance decl like this:
+
+ instance (C Int a, Eq b, Eq c) => Eq (T a b c)
+
+even though there is no instance for (C Int a), because there just
+*might* be an instance for, say, (C Int Bool) at a site where we
+need the equality instance for T's.
+
+However, this seems pretty exotic, and it's quite tricky to allow
+this, and yet give sensible error messages in the (much more common)
+case where we really want that instance decl for C.
+
+So for now we simply require that the derived instance context
+should have only type-variable constraints.
+
+Here is another example:
+ data Fix f = In (f (Fix f)) deriving( Eq )
+Here, if we are prepared to allow -fallow-undecidable-instances we
+could derive the instance
+ instance Eq (f (Fix f)) => Eq (Fix f)
+but this is so delicate that I don't think it should happen inside
+'deriving'. If you want this, write it yourself!
+
+NB: if you want to lift this condition, make sure you still meet the
+termination conditions! If not, the deriving mechanism generates
+larger and larger constraints. Example:
+ data Succ a = S a
+ data Seq a = Cons a (Seq (Succ a)) | Nil deriving Show
+
+Note the lack of a Show instance for Succ. First we'll generate
+ instance (Show (Succ a), Show a) => Show (Seq a)
+and then
+ instance (Show (Succ (Succ a)), Show (Succ a), Show a) => Show (Seq a)
+and so on. Instead we want to complain of no instance for (Show (Succ a)).
+
+The bottom line
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Allow constraints which consist only of type variables, with no repeats.
+
+\begin{code}
+validDerivPred :: PredType -> Bool
+validDerivPred (ClassP cls tys) = hasNoDups fvs && sizeTypes tys == length fvs
+ where fvs = fvTypes tys
