 Foo.hs:

 {{{
 module Foo where

 import Bar

 data Foo a
 }}}

 Foo.hs-boot:
 {{{
 module Foo where

 data Foo a
 }}}

 Bar.hs:
 {{{
 module Bar where
 import {-# SOURCE #-} Foo
 }}}

 With GHC 7.8.2 I'm getting the error

 {{{
 Foo.hs-boot:3:1:
     Type constructor ‘Foo’ has conflicting definitions in the module
     and its hs-boot file
     Main module: type role Foo phantom
                  data Foo a
     Boot file:   data Foo a
 }}}
