Typed holes regression in GHC 8.0.2: No skolem info: z_a1sY[sk:2]
(Originally spun off from #13877 (closed).)
The following program gives a somewhat decent error message in GHC 8.0.1:

{-# LANGUAGE RankNTypes #-}
{-# LANGUAGE ScopedTypeVariables #-}
{-# LANGUAGE TypeApplications #-}
{-# LANGUAGE TypeFamilies #-}
