Comment:

 This looks ok to me in the 6.10 branch sources, and when running GHC
 6.10.1 on this program
 {{{
 {-# LANGUAGE MultiParamTypeClasses, FunctionalDependencies,
 FlexibleInstances #-}
 module Foo where

 class C a b | a->b

 instance C [a] d
 }}}
 I get
 {{{
 bash-3.2$ ghc -c Foo.hs

 Foo.hs:6:0:
     Illegal instance declaration for `C [a] d'
         (the Coverage Condition fails for one of the functional
 dependencies;
          Use -XUndecidableInstances to permit this)
     In the instance declaration for `C [a] d'
 }}}

 Are you sure you are using 6.10?  If so, re-open this bug with more info.
 Thanks.

 Simon
