GHC panic with invalid expression
Hi, I recently discovered this expression causes GHC to panic. Shouldn't it handle this more gracefully? Perhaps saying something like "That expression is not valid. <Further Explanation>"
Invalid expression:
g :: (a->b) a
Prelude> g :: (a->b) a
ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
(GHC version 8.2.1 for x86_64-apple-darwin):
repSplitAppTys
a_a1Lz[sk:1]
b_a1LA[sk:1]
[]

Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
