Comment:
The syb.cabal file (see
http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/syb/0.3.6/syb.cabal) mentions
the extension `ScopedTypeVariables`, but if you load the file on GHCi you
won't get this. This explains the difference in behaviour between `cabal
install` and just loading the file on GHCi.
The `RankNTypes` error itself is already reported as #6032. I think the
best thing to do is to change `syb`; I'll release an updated version
today.
