--- Looking up family names in type instances is a subtle affair. The family
--- may be imported, in which case we need to lookup the occurence of a global
--- name. Alternatively, the family may be in the same binding group (and in
--- fact in a declaration processed later), and we need to create a new top
--- source binder.
+-- If the family is declared locally, it will not yet be in the main
+-- environment; hence, we pass in an extra one here, which we check first.
+-- See "Note [Looking up family names in family instances]" in 'RnNames'.
--
--- So, also this is strictly speaking an occurence, we cannot raise an error
--- message yet for instances without a family declaration. This will happen
--- during renaming the type instance declaration in RnSource.rnTyClDecl.
