Comment (by ulysses4ever):

 @RyanGlScott How did you trace usage of `bindLHsTyVarBndrs` to
 `rnValBindsLHS`? I was only able to trace it to `rnValBindsRHS` as
 @simonpj told:

 {{{

 -- RnTypes.hs

 warnUnusedForAll  ←
 bindLHsTyVarBndrs ←
 rnHsTyKi          ←
 rnLHsType         ←
 rnHsSigType       ←

 -- RnBinds.hs

 renameSig         ←
 rnValBindsRHS
 }}}
