Comment (by skvadrik):

 slyfox helped me git-bisect the bug and it turns out that the faulty
 commit is ffc21506894c7887d3620423aaf86bc6113a1071. Commit message says:
 {{{
 - I found that the parser was parsing an import item like
       T( .. )
   as a *data constructor* T, and then using setRdrNameSpace to
   fix it.  Stupid!  So I changed the parser to parse a *type
   constructor* T, which means less use of setRdrNameSpace.
 }}}
