 Test case:
 {{{
 {-# LANGUAGE TemplateHaskell #-}
 module B where

 import Language.Haskell.TH

 ty :: Q Type
 ty = [t| Int |]

 f :: $ty
 f = undefined
 }}}

 The error message is:

 {{{

 B.hs:9:6:
     GHC internal error: `ty' is not in scope during type checking, but it
 passed the renamer
     tcl_env of environment: []
     In the expression: ty
     In the type signature for `f': f :: $ty
 }}}

 This is the same error as in #5792.
