#3323: panic: funArgTy

The following module crashes GHC 6.11.20090615:
{{{
module V where
import GHC.IO.Handle.Types
import GHC.IO.Handle.Internals
f :: Handle -> IO ()
f hdl = withHandle_ "" hdl $ \h -> return h{haDevice=undefined}
}}}
results:
{{{
$ ghc-testing2 --make V.hs
[1 of 1] Compiling V ( V.hs, V.o )
ghc-stage2: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
(GHC version 6.11.20090615 for x86_64-unknown-linux):
funArgTy ghc-prim:GHC.Unit.(){(w) tc 40}
}}}
It imports some internals of the IO library; I tried to reproduce it with
a completely standalone module, but failed. The field `haDevice` of
`Handle__` has existential type - normally GHC rejects a record update
when the field has existential type, but does not in this case, I'm not
sure why.
