fix segfault with gensym node instantiation (#24050)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
fixes #24048

Generic lambdas get instantiated via `replaceTypesInBody` which calls
`replaceTypeVarsN` on the body of the lambda. This body can contain sym
nodes of gensym symbols generated by macros, which have `nil` type. But
a piece of code in `replaceTypeVarsN` checks whether the type of a
symbol is equal to `void` without checking if it's `nil` first, which
causes a segfault. Now it also checks that the type of the symbol isn't
`nil` for it to be `void`.
