`TypeOps#simplify` is supposed to produce a type `=:=` the original type, but it replaced type variables created using `newTypeVar` by one of their bound, this is wrong since that type variable might get instantiated to a different type later. This simplification was added in scala#2209 to prevent a pickling crash in tests/pos/i2152.scala but does not appear to be needed anymore: an uninstantiated type variable being preserved after typer is always wrong, so the underlying bug must have been fixed since then.
