Comment (by RyanGlScott):

 Here is another example which doesn't require `ImpredicativeTypes`,
 `PolyKinds`, or visible dependent quantification:

 {{{#!hs
 {-# LANGUAGE KindSignatures #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE RankNTypes #-}
 module Bug where

 import Data.Kind

 type A a = Int
 type B (a :: Type -> Type) = forall x. x -> x
 type C = B A
 }}}
