  * Fix Trac #3468: improve checking for hs-boot interfaces
  Ignore-this: df9e84e963b1c69328e020772a481f5e
  
  When checking the interface exported by a hs-boot file against the
  Real Thing, I'd failed to check the kind of a type constructor.  If you
  get it wrong, the inconsistency leads to all manner of mischief, as 
  'wkahl' reports in #3468.
  
  This patch should do the job.
