I observed a crash in replace when hacking ElimOpaque the compiler.It came down to the problem that a TermRef with a context function as underlying type was added to the context as lower bound after some errors were already
reported. I could not track down the exact chain of effects. But anyway it's
better to be defensive and not let junk enter the context.

Commit Messages

We want to keep history, but for that to actually be useful we have
some rules on how to format our commit messages (relevant xkcd).

Please stick to these guidelines for commit messages:

  1. Separate subject from body with a blank line
  2. When fixing an issue, start your commit message with Fix #<ISSUE-NBR>:
  3. Limit the subject line to 72 characters
  4. Capitalize the subject line
  5. Do not end the subject line with a period
  6. Use the imperative mood in the subject line ("Add" instead of "Added")
  7. Wrap the body at 80 characters
  8. Use the body to explain what and why vs. how

Have an awesome day! ☀️

Turns out there are more situations where we can get junk in constraints, and in at least one of
them (i7969.scala) this happens before errors are reported. So, it's better to just reject junk
types and return false in addConstraint.
