2310,Panic in ghci 6.8.2 with -fglasgow-exts,guest,igloo,"
Steps to reproduce:

1. Run ""ghci -fglasgow-exts""

2. Enter: ""let const :: (forall a. (forall b. a->b)) = \x::a -> (\y -> x) :: (forall b. b -> a)"".


Result:
{{{
GHCi, version 6.8.2: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
Loading package base ... linking ... done.
Prelude> let const :: (forall a. (forall b. a->b)) = \x::a -> (\y -> x) :: (forall b. b -> a)
ghc-6.8.2: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
 (GHC version 6.8.2 for i386-unknown-linux):
	nameModule a{tv anJ}

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

Let me know if any more information would be helpful.  This is all on a Ubuntu 8.04.  I have included below the output of running the above with ""ghci -v -fglasgow-exts"":

ghci -v
