 Spun out from https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14040#comment:2,
 which was different enough from the original program in #14040 to warrant
 its own ticket. The following program panics on every version of GHC from
 8.0.2 onward:

 {{{#!hs
 {-# LANGUAGE RankNTypes #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE ScopedTypeVariables #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE TypeInType #-}
 module Bug where

 import Data.Kind
 import Data.Proxy

 newtype S (f :: k1 -> k2)
   = MkS (forall t. Proxy t -> Proxy (f t))

 foo :: forall (a :: Type)
               (f :: forall (x :: a). Proxy x -> Type).
        S f -> ()
 foo (MkS (sF :: _)) = ()
 }}}
