Comment (by Simon Peyton Jones <simonpj@…>):

 In [changeset:"4c746cb2886b06ca53a2edb62188827c3dbccce0/ghc" 4c746cb/ghc]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="ghc"
 revision="4c746cb2886b06ca53a2edb62188827c3dbccce0"
 Add missing solveEqualities

 I'd missed a call to solveEqualities in the partial-type-sig case
 of TcBinds.tcUserTypeSig.

 Also the checkValidType test done there best done after inference,
 in checkInferredPolyId (and is already done there).

 Fixes Trac #11976
