Comment:

 Here is how to reproduce this:

 {{{
 $ /opt/ghc/8.4.4/bin/ghci -fdefer-type-errors
 GHCi, version 8.4.4: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
 Loaded GHCi configuration from /home/rgscott/.ghci
 λ> import System.Directory
 λ> getCurrentDirectory
 ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
   (GHC version 8.4.4 for x86_64-unknown-linux):
         nameModule
   system $dShow_a2lk
   Call stack:
       CallStack (from HasCallStack):
         callStackDoc, called at compiler/utils/Outputable.hs:1150:37 in
 ghc:Outputable
         pprPanic, called at compiler/basicTypes/Name.hs:241:3 in ghc:Name
 }}}

 Given that this is not reproducible with GHC 8.6, this is almost assuredly
 a duplicate of #14963, so I'll close this ticket in favor of that one.
