 I have this code:

 {{{
 {-# language TypeFamilies #-}
 {-# language MultiParamTypeClasses #-}
 {-# language FlexibleInstances #-}

 import Control.Monad.Except

 class Component comp where
     data Error comp :: *
     type ComponentT comp :: * -> *
     type ComponentT comp = ExceptT (Error comp)

 }}}

 I expect it to either compile or fail with error.

 Instead, GHC[i] hangs every time.

 It prints
 {{{
 <interactive>:10:28: error:
 }}}

 and then hangs.
