 I was reading the equality testing code for coercions and I noticed this
 line:

 {{{
 coreEqCoercion2 env (ForAllCo v1 co1) (ForAllCo v2 co2)
   = coreEqCoercion2 (rnBndr2 env v1 v2) co1 co2
 }}}

 This doesn't test if the types of the binders are equal. Should it? (Or is
 the type always trivially the same?)
