Description
This code:
```reasonml
type bar = {x: int};
type event =
| Foo(int)
| Bar(bar);
```
Generates this output, which has a syntax error:
```reasonml
module Types1 = {
type _Lib__Events__event =
Lib__Events.event = | Foo(int) | Bar(_lib__Events__bar)
and _lib__Events__bar = lib__Events.bar = {x: int};
};
```
