Comment (by ezyang):

 Yes, rwbarton is exactly right. Here's a self-contained example that
 doesn't involve looking at the interface file:

 {{{
 {-# LANGUAGE PatternSynonyms #-}
 unit p where
     module A0 where
         data G = G Int
     module A1 where
         import A0
         pattern X x = G x
     module A(G(X)) where
         import A0
         import A1
     module B(G) where
         import A
     module C(pattern X) where
         import A
     module D(N.G, pattern N.X) where
         import B
         import C
         import qualified A0 as N
         import qualified A1 as N
     module E where
         import D(G(..))
         f (X x) = x -- X is in scope
 }}}
