* FIX Trac #1935: generate superclass constraints for derived classes
This bug only reports a problem with phantom types, but actually
there was quite a long-standing and significant omission in the
constraint generation for derived classes. See
Note [Superclasses of derived instance] in TcDeriv.
The test deriving-1935 tests both cases.
