 Sadly, I'm unable to reproduce this without `singletons`. :(

 Observe:

 {{{
 > ghci
 GHCi, version 7.10.2: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
 Prelude> import Data.Promotion.Prelude   -- singletons-2.0.1
 Prelude Data.Promotion.Prelude> :kind! Lookup 'True '[ '(True, True) ]
 Lookup 'True '[ '(True, True) ] :: Maybe Bool
 = Data.Singletons.Prelude.List.Case_1628035408
     'True
     'True
     'True
     '[]
     (Data.Singletons.Apply (Data.Singletons.Apply (:==$) 'True) 'True)
 Prelude Data.Promotion.Prelude> :kind! Lookup 'True '[ '(True, True) ]
 Lookup 'True '[ '(True, True) ] :: Maybe Bool
 = JustSym1 'True
 }}}

 Note that the exact same command run twice yields different results. I
 tried peeking at `-ddump-tc-trace` but got nothing of use.
