Comment (by bgamari):

 And as it turns out wiring in the tuple type constructors representations
 has further knock-on consequence, requiring that we yet again wire-in
 `Data.Typeable.Internal.Module` and `Data.Typeable.Internal.TrName`.
 Recall that we unwired these around six months ago
 (ticket:11120#comment:28) due to breakage in GHCJS due to the varying
 width of `Fingerprint` on 32- and 64-bit platforms. For what it's worth,
 this varying width would be fixed if #11953 were implemented.
