Comment (by kosmikus):
Haven't checked the attached test cases in detail, but from the
description and discussion it sounds as if the original issue is #12381,
which is fixed in HEAD. And the subsequent issue seems to be #12384, which
is not fixed and seems to be difficult to fix.
I ran into both of those issues when I tried to write a type-level
translation of the new type-level generic metadata that GHC 8 provides
into a different representation of type-level metadata that would be
useful for generics-sop (and makes use of a type-level GADT and therefore
TypeInType).
