GHC is stuck (runs indefinitely) compiling a module

Compiling Agda with ghc-8.6.3 using stack, ghc is stuck at this module (runs for 20+ min with no progress).

It looks like a regression in ghc-8.6.3 on Windows as Agda is successfully built with ghc-8.6.2 on the same machine, and Agda build with ghc-8.6.3 is generally supported (see this issue).
