New description:
When compiling one of my own libraries I received this compiler message:
{{{
ghc-6.8.3: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
(GHC version 6.8.3 for i386-unknown-linux):
tcIfaceGlobal (local): not found:
main:Session.:CoF:R26Dependencies{tc rdk}

Comment:
This almost always means that you have out of date .hi files. We have an
open ticket #2648 on making this error message more robust and
informative.
Can you remove every .hi file and try again? If that fixes it, close the
ticket as a duplicate; if not, we'd better investigate further. Thanks
very much.
Simon
