 This one looks similar to #12381, but unfortunately, it does not seem to
 be fixed in HEAD:
 {{{#!hs
 {-# LANGUAGE TypeInType, TypeFamilies, FlexibleInstances #-}

 import GHC.Types

 type family F (a :: Type) :: Type

 class C a where
   type D (a :: Type) :: F a

 instance (F a ~ Bool) => C a where
 type D a = True
 }}}

 This yields (in 8.0.1 and 8.1.20160709):
 {{{
 Constraint.hs:11:14: error:
     • Expected kind ‘F a’, but ‘'True’ has kind ‘Bool’
     • In the type ‘True’
       In the type instance declaration for ‘D’
       In the instance declaration for ‘C a’
 }}}
