Comment (by philderbeast):

 Found these failures ...

 {{{
 Unexpected results from:
 TEST="T3468 tcfail072 T8119 KindInvariant"
 }}}

 Of those, only T3468 is showing forall in the diff ...

 {{{
 Actual stderr output differs from expected:
      and its hs-boot file
      Main module: type role Tool phantom
                   data Tool d where
 -                   F :: a -> Tool d
 +  F :: forall d a r. a -> Tool d
      Boot file:   abstract Tool
      The types have different kinds
 *** unexpected failure for T3468(normal)
 }}}
