Correct a horrible error in repType
-----------------------------------
repType is meant to give the underlying representation of a type.
But it wasn't taking account of the fact that *recursive* newtypes are
still represented by a TyConApp. (Non-recursive ones behave much more
like type synonyms now.)
As a result, if we have
newtype F = F (F->F)
then Bad Things happen if we try to seq x::F. We decide whether to
push an ordinary return address or a SEQ frame based on the type,
and repType didn't expose the fact that F is represented by a function type.
Aargh. codeGen/should_run/cg050 now tests for this.
