Comment (by guest):
I'm working on a Haskell library aimed at working with Template Haskell
Types (i.e. Language.Haskell.TH.Type).
One of the features offered is translating between TypeRep and Type. The
translation is not really reliable for user-defined types since the user
can provide "wrong" Typeable instances, but fixing this bug would
certainly help.
