Comment (by RyanGlScott):

 Using the latest commit on the `wip/T2893` branch, this program now gives
 you a stack overflow!

       Use -freduction-depth=0 to disable this check
       (any upper bound you could choose might fail unpredictably with
        minor updates to GHC, so disabling the check is recommended if
        you're sure that type checking should terminate)
