I tried pulling the old Java enum generics cleverness on rustc, and depending on the syntax used it either works as expected or plainly crashes.

This works just fine:

trait A<T> where T: A<T> {}

However this really upsets the compiler:

trait A<T: A<T>> {}
$ RUST_BACKTRACE=1 rustc src/lib.rs --crate-type lib

thread 'rustc' has overflowed its stack
Illegal instruction 
$ rustc --version --verbose

Is this a dup of #12644 ?

The code currently compiles, so I believe this issue can be closed.
