Ralf You have a pragma "-fallow-overlapping-instances" in Test.hs, and indeed it is honoured when compiling Test.hs. But it's not taken into account when compiling top-level expressions, or, indeed, if you were to import Test into another module.
If you say ":set -falllow-overlapping-instances" it'll work fine. Now, maybe you'd like the flag to attach permanently to the *instance*, so that if an instance decl is compiled with -fallow-overlapping-instances, then no complaint will ever be issued for its overlaps, even if it is imported into a module that doesn't have -fallow-overlapping-instances. That would make sense, I think, but it's not implemented and never has been.
