Comment:

 No, it can affect anyone:
 {{{
 {-# LANGUAGE MagicHash #-}
 module Foo where
 import GHC.Prim

 f :: Int -> Int#
 f x = raise# x
 }}}
 This wrongly yields
 {{{
     Kind incompatibility when matching types:
       b0 :: *
       Int# :: #
     In the expression: raise# x
     In an equation for ‘f’: f x = raise# x
 }}}
