ICE: has escaping bound vars, so it cannot be wrapped in a dummy binder with unsafe_binders

[cushionbadak]

Code

#![feature(unsafe_binders)]

#[derive(PartialEq, Eq)]
enum O<T> {
    Some(T),
    None,
}

const C: &[O<unsafe<'a, 'b> &'b Box<dyn Fn(Box<dyn Fn() -> &'a isize>)>>] = &[O::None];

fn main() {
    let x = O::None;
    match &[x][..] {
        C => (),
        _ => (),
    }
}

Notes

• ICE location: compiler/rustc_middle/src/ty/predicate.rs Line-510
  

  rust/compiler/rustc_middle/src/ty/predicate.rs

  Lines 508 to 512 in 2eef478

  	impl<'tcx> UpcastFrom<TyCtxt<'tcx>, TraitRef<'tcx>> for Predicate<'tcx> {
  	fn upcast_from(from: TraitRef<'tcx>, tcx: TyCtxt<'tcx>) -> Self {
  	ty::Binder::dummy(from).upcast(tcx)
  	}
  	}

• There are several other ICE issues with the same ICE location as this one, but require different feature and have different query stack.
