Comment:

 Commit a920404fb12fb52a59e4f728cce4d662a418c5f8 (Fix
 TcSimplify.decideQuantification for kind variables) caused this
 regression.

 On a related note, that same commit also caused another class of program
 to loop at runtime in
 https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13429#comment:16, so there's
 definitely something fishy with this commit.
