Comment (by mpickering):

 Here is a minimal reproduction. It is two files.

 1. `M.hs`
 {{{
 {-# LANGUAGE TypeFamilies #-}
 module M
         ( -- * Abstract array representation
          Array (..)
         , Source(..)

         )
 where

 class Source r where
  data Array r

 data C

 instance Source C where
  data Array C
         = ACursored { cursoredExtent :: Int }
 }}}

 2. `Test.hs`
 {{{
 module Test where

 import M (Array)
 }}}

 Reproduce with `ghc Test.hs`.

 Error being

 {{{
 ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
   (GHC version 8.0.1 for x86_64-apple-darwin):
         filterImports/combine
   (Array, Array{Array, ACursored, cursoredExtent}, Nothing)
   (Array, Source{Source, Array}, Nothing)

 Please report this as a GHC bug:  http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
 }}}

 Thanks for the report koshmar! Hopefully Simon will know a workaround.
