-- This is rejected because we cannot derive (Show (D a)) from (C a)

-- message mentions the internal name of the default method for show.
-- Simon thinks that we should accept the fact that this doesn't get
-- accepted, given that a quantified constraint for (Show (c b)) is far
-- too applicable to be useful. So we're left with the suboptimal
-- error message.
