Nightly regression around HRTBs, likely connected to wf changes

[aturon]

The following code:

struct Parser<'i: 't, 't>(&'i u8, &'t u8);

impl<'i, 't> Parser<'i, 't> {
    fn parse_nested_block<F, T>(&mut self, parse: F) -> Result<T, ()>
        where for<'tt> F: FnOnce(&mut Parser<'i, 'tt>) -> T { panic!() }

    fn expect_exhausted(&mut self) -> Result<(), ()> { Ok(()) }
}

fn main() {
    let x = 0u8;
    Parser(&x, &x).parse_nested_block(|input| input.expect_exhausted()).unwrap();
}

compiles on 1.3 stable and 1.4 beta, but not on nightly. This seems likely related to wf changes.

The above is a reduction of servo/rust-cssparser@29f757d

I can reproduce in rustc 1.5.0-nightly (d0cae14 2015-10-08) but not in rustc 1.5.0-dev (168a23e 2015-10-01). (The latter is what Servo uses at the moment.)

A quick scan of the intervening commits suggests 603a75c may be related.

The eta-reduced version fails on all versions of rustc:

struct Parser<'i: 't, 't>(&'i u8, &'t u8);

impl<'i, 't> Parser<'i, 't> {
    fn parse_nested_block<F, T>(&mut self, parse: F) -> Result<T, ()>
        where for<'tt> F: FnOnce(&mut Parser<'i, 'tt>) -> T { panic!() }

    fn expect_exhausted(&mut self) -> Result<(), ()> { Ok(()) }
}

fn main() {
    let x = 0u8;
    Parser(&x, &x).parse_nested_block(Parser::expect_exhausted).unwrap();
}

The wf fixes just bought it in line.

The UFCS version fails on 1.4+, but succeeds if you annotate the parameter type - this looks like a closure inference issue.
