Current behavior
When adding the value returned from UpgradeAdapter.upgradeNg1Component into the declarations array of NgModule, AoT fails with the error below

export const Ng1Component = adapter.upgradeNg1Component('ng1Component');
@NgModule({
  imports: [BrowserModule],
  declarations: [TestApp, Ng1Component],
  bootstrap: [TestApp]
})
export class TestModule {}

Expected/desired behavior
It should compile without error

Reproduction of the problem
ng2bad-build.zip

See attached project for error reproduction

npm run tsc (works)
npm run ngc (does not work - throws error from above)

Please tell us about your environment:

• Angular version: 2.0.0-rc.6
• OS: OSX 10.10.5
• Language: [TypeScript 2.0.2]

Originally reported to a different issue #10789 (comment)
But according to @chuckjaz, the issue is different enough to warrant a new bug report

See #11262, #11133, #11069, #10789 I missed the last part, ignore this comment.
