Template Haskell: Cycle in type synonym declarations

type-level-numbers-0.1 doesn't build with 7.0.1 RC 1. Here's the essence:

{-# LANGUAGE TemplateHaskell #-}
module Q where

data Z

type N0 = $( [t| Z |] )
type N1 = $( [t| Z |] )
$ ghc --make m.hs
[1 of 1] Compiling Q                ( m.hs, m.o )

m.hs:7:1:
    Cycle in type synonym declarations:
      m.hs:7:1-23: type N0 = $([t| Z |])
      m.hs:8:1-23: type N1 = $([t| Z |])
