IDE: Cannot navigate from left operand of a right-associative infix op

[odersky]

In dotc.Compiler, try to navigate from the phases list to the individual phases. E.g. goto definition on "ElimRepeated" gives "no definition found". However, if I copy the ElimRepeated identifier outside the list, navigation works as expected.

Correction: The fault seems to lie with infix operators, not varargs.

If I just write new ElimRepeated, it finds it. But if I write new ElimRepeated :: Nil, I can't hyperlink on ElimRepeated.

Nil :+ new ElimRepeated also works. So the fault seems to lie with left operands of right-associative infix operators like ::.
