-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
This type family has a strange kind to begin with:
{{{
{-# Language TypeFamilies , TypeInType #-}
type family F f a :: a
}}}
But it gets even stranger when you ask ghci what it thinks about F:
{{{
> :k F
F :: * -> forall a -> a
}}}
There is a forall which doesn't seem to bind any variables and hasn't got
the customary delimiting dot.
