Hence, we should not move the closing-over-kinds part at all, and instead just modify the TyVar branch of ty_co_vars_of_type so that it handles each variable it encounters exactly once (comment:123)
Correct, that's what I'm suggesting.
I had been implementing Simon's suggestion from comment:122, and at least while still using mapUnionVarSet, I'm still getting regressions on 4 tests,
I'd be surprised if you still got regressions if you adopted the more efficient `closeOverKinds` from comment:122. But (a) I've been surprised many times by this zombie and (b) I think comment:123 is better anyway. TL;DR: do comment:123. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14880#comment:128 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
