Yes. For various other reasons, the trait system needed to be rewritten, and it would also end up fixing this. Since it’s essentially a theoretical issue, spending time on this wouldn’t make sense. In the meantime, that rewrite is nearing completion. The most recent version of rust uses it for coherence checking. The next few months are likely to remove several other stoppers from moving forward. It’s almost time for a crater run, and then fixing whatever issues that shows up.
