+This error also includes the use of associated types with lifetime parameters.
+```compile_fail,E0582
+trait Foo {
+    type Assoc<'a>;
+}
+
+struct Bar<X, F>
+where
+    X: Foo,
+    F: for<'a> Fn(X::Assoc<'a>) -> &'a i32
+{
+    x: X,
+    f: F
+}
+```
+The latter scenario encounters this error because `Foo::Assoc<'a>` could be
+implemented by a type that does not use the `'a` parameter, so there is no
+guarentee that `X::Assoc<'a>` actually uses `'a`.
+
+To fix this we can pass a dummy parameter:
+```
+# trait Foo {
+#     type Assoc<'a>;
+# }
+struct Bar<X, F>
+where
+    X: Foo,
+    F: for<'a> Fn(X::Assoc<'a>, /* dummy */ &'a ()) -> &'a i32
+{
+    x: X,
+    f: F
+}
+```
+
 Note: The examples above used to be (erroneously) accepted by the
 compiler, but this was since corrected. See [issue #33685] for more
 details.
