Comment (by RyanGlScott):

 This is technically my fault, since this regression first started
 happening in 639e702b6129f501c539b158b982ed8489e3d09c (`Refactor
 DeriveAnyClass's instance context inference`). That being said, I don't
 have any inclination as to what part of that patch tickles this panic.
