+An attempt was made to constrain an associated type.
+For example:
+
+```compile_fail,E0222
+pub trait Vehicle {
+    type Color;
+}
+
+pub trait Box {
+    type Color;
+}
+
+pub trait BoxCar : Box + Vehicle {}
+
+fn dent_object<COLOR>(c: dyn BoxCar<Color=COLOR>) {} // Invalid constraint
+```
+
+In this example, `BoxCar` has two super-traits: `Vehicle` and `Box`. Both of
+these traits define an associated type `Color`. `BoxCar` inherits two types
+with that name from both super-traits. Because of this, we need to use the
+fully qualified path syntax to refer to the appropriate `Color` associated
+type, either `<BoxCar as Vehicle>::Color` or `<BoxCar as Box>::Color`, but this
+syntax is not allowed to be used in a function signature.
+
+In order to encode this kind of constraint, a `where` clause and a new type
+parameter are needed:
+
+```
+pub trait Vehicle {
+    type Color;
+}
+
+pub trait Box {
+    type Color;
+}
+
+pub trait BoxCar : Box + Vehicle {}
+
+// Introduce a new `CAR` type parameter
+fn foo<CAR, COLOR>(
+    c: CAR,
+) where
+    // Bind the type parameter `CAR` to the trait `BoxCar`
+    CAR: BoxCar,
+    // Further restrict `<BoxCar as Vehicle>::Color` to be the same as the
+    // type parameter `COLOR`
+    CAR: Vehicle<Color = COLOR>,
+    // We can also simultaneously restrict the other trait's associated type
+    CAR: Box<Color = COLOR>
+{}
+```
