-- Note [Tying the knot]
-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-- The if_rec_types field is used in two situations:
--
-- a) Compiling M.hs, which indiretly imports Foo.hi, which mentions M.T
--    Then we look up M.T in M's type environment, which is splatted into if_rec_types
--    after we've built M's type envt.
--
-- b) In ghc --make, during the upsweep, we encounter M.hs, whose interface M.hi
--    is up to date.  So we call typecheckIface on M.hi.  This splats M.T into
--    if_rec_types so that the (lazily typechecked) decls see all the other decls
--
-- In case (b) it's important to do the if_rec_types check *before* looking in the HPT
-- Because if M.hs also has M.hs-boot, M.T will *already be* in the HPT, but in its
-- emasculated form (e.g. lacking data constructors).
