Comment (by tvynr):

 That looks great, thanks.  :)  And for anyone else who encounters this
 problem or is perhaps about as confused by the TypeLits stuff as I am,
 adding the following fixes the panic in GHC 7.6.1 (and leads to revealing
 mistakes in the anyVar function):

 {{{
 instance SingE (Kind :: QualForm) QualForm where
   fromSing x = case x of
     UnqualifiedTVarS -> UnqualifiedTVar
     QualifiedTVarS -> QualifiedTVar
 }}}
