    33GHC includes a new (in 2010) mechanism to let you write generic functions.  It is described in [http://www.dreixel.net/research/pdf/gdmh_nocolor.pdf A generic deriving mechanism for Haskell], by Magalhães, Dijkstra, Jeuring and Löh.  This page sketches the specifics of the implementation; we assume you have read the paper.
