Comment (by nomeata):

 I am having a hard time finding the place where the renaming happens. If
 that code looks at the type (or at least all type variables bound
 together) as a whole this might be quite easy. If it just adds one
 variable by another, without being able to rename the existing ones, it
 might be hard.

 Can someone point me to the rough area of the code?
