 The following code causes a panic:

 {{{
 {-# LANGUAGE FunctionalDependencies, PolyKinds #-}

 class Baz a b | a -> b where
   bar :: a -> ()

 instance Baz Bool Bool where
   bar _ = ()

 foo = bar False
 }}}

 The panic reads:

 {{{
 ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
   (GHC version 7.7.20121031 for x86_64-apple-darwin):
         ctEvTerm: derived constraint cannot have id
 <<details unavailable>>
 }}}

 The panic does not happen without {{{-XPolyKinds}}}.
