Summary0000027: Type var in instance declaration can cause compiler to crash
DescriptionThe compiler crashes when compiling the following code:

:- module instance_var_bug.
:- interface.
:- typeclass tc(T) where [ pred p(T::in) is semidet ].
:- implementation.
:- instance tc(V) where [ p(_) :- semidet_true ].

The bug is that the instance argument is a variable, but this is not being caught.

The compiler is checking that the instance declarations don't contain
type variables. The problem is that it doesn't do this check until
*after* the code that causing this abort is executed. Fixing this
should just be a matter of either re-ordering some of the checks in
compiler/check_typeclass.m.

Fixed. See r1.116 of compiler/check_typeclass.m for details.
