Comment (by simonpj):
The trouble is that GHC has no idea what a "public name" might be. The
name by which you refer to `Data.Array.Base.UArray` depends n the context
you are in. But TH is supposed to be '''lexically scoped''', so you must
get `Data.Array.Base.UArray` regardless of context.
Perhpas Derive can generate import statements for any qualified names it
mentions?
