Comment:

 Ah yes, excellent point thank you. A missed instantiation.

   * Fix Trac #3423: missed instantiation for newtype-derived instances

   Somehow I'd forgotten to instantiate the coercion that is stored in a
   'NewtypeDerived' constructor in an InstInfo.  The necessary code is
   in TcInstDcls.tc_inst_decl2.

   The result was ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
      (GHC version 6.10.3 for x86_64-unknown-linux):
      No match in record selector Var.tcTyVarDetails
   because we were looking at an (uninstantiated) TyVar instead of
   an (instantiated) TcTyVar.
