Comment (by darchon):

 A similar panic also happens when you run doctest
 http://hackage.haskell.org/package/doctest on a file that uses a type-
 checker plugin https://github.com/christiaanb/ghc-typelits-
 natnormalise/blob/master/tests/Tests.hs

 {{{
 doctest: doctest: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
   (GHC version 7.10.1 for x86_64-apple-darwin):
         Static flags have not been initialised!
         Please call GHC.parseStaticFlags early enough.
