 commit 516d3138473d7b097cc572901bd02fce9509f1b8
 {{{
 Author: Simon Peyton Jones <[email protected]>

     Add a crucial forkM on the superclass context of IfaceClass in
 tcIfaceDecl

     The absence of this was causing a loop when typechecking an interface
     where the superclass context mentioned an associated type
        class C (T a) => D a where
          data T a

     Fixes Trac #5970
