rust-lang/rust#98109 fixes a soundness hole in rust. Unfortunately, this fix exposes an other known bug in reasoning about bounds of the form
for<'a> &'a T: 'a
. This bug can be illustrated in the following example which is rejected since v1.0!One way to work around such bug is to simply remove the bound since it is always satisfied for any type
T
.We tried to fix this in a timely manner, but it's not a particularly easy problem. Indeed it is part of a long-term initiative under the name of "implied bounds" to better support these bounds. Sorry for any inconvenience!
