This fixes a hole in the combination of #541 + #542 (which is why I'd excluded those PRs from the most recent release).
Without this restriction, the following crates would have typechecked but caused duplicate symbols which is UB:
The nonlocal types design described in #496 (comment) prohibits the code in crates B and C (
unsafe impl Vec<S>
would be required for a nonlocal typeS
) but is not implemented yet. For now this PR is a pretty blunt restriction and will get substantially relaxed as #496 gets implemented.
