 Thanks for the scoped kind variables.

 When they get confused with type variables, GHC panics instead of
 displaying an error.

 {{{
 {-# LANGUAGE KindSignatures, MultiParamTypeClasses #-}
 class Panic a b
 instance Panic (a :: b) b
 }}}

 {{{
 ghc-stage2: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
   (GHC version 7.5.20120416 for x86_64-unknown-linux):
         tcTyVarDetails a{tv aj60} [tv]
 }}}
