Comment (by ezyang):

 I can reproduce with an even more minimized test-case, on a stage 2 quick
 build:

 {{{
 module T8743 where
 class ToRow a
 instance ToRow ()
 }}}

 {{{
 module T8743 where
 import {-# SOURCE #-} T8743 ()
 class ToRow a
 instance ToRow () where
 }}}

 With some more tracing you can get a clue: `tcIfaceGlobal` is being called
 because GHC is trying to report a duplicate instance error. That certainly
 should not happen! So in one-shot compilation, GHC is seeing an instance
 in its environment that is NOT supposed to be there.
