}
declare const jS: typeof j1 & typeof j2;
declare class j0 extends jS {
}

🙁 Actual behavior

TypeScript crashes on the above code:

Node.js v22.19.0

In case of TS Playground, the error is visible in the browser DevTools console

🙂 Expected behavior

No exception, and no type-checker error.
Works if you remove one of the constructors or the private modifier.

Additional information about the issue

I was researching how to represent my mixins in .d.ts, without exposing mixin constructors
