Renamer is not applied properly to the expressions in declaration splices

To recreate this make a Haskell file say named 'T.hs', with the following code:

{-# LANGUAGE TemplateHaskell #-}
(() -> ())

Then try to compile it:

$> ghc-stage2 T.hs
[...]
ghc-stage2: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
  (GHC version 8.1.20160617 for x86_64-unknown-linux):
	tcMonoExpr _
