   You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.
   While forcing the thunk for TyThing A
   which was lazily initialized by initIfaceCheck typecheckLoop,
   I tried to tie the knot, but I couldn't find A
   in the current type environment.
   If you are developing GHC, please read Note [Tying the knot]
   and Note [Type-checking inside the knot].
   Consider rebuilding GHC with profiling for a better stack trace.

 This works:
