Expected behavior

That pylint does not crash

Pylint version

3.0.0 and 3.0.3 both failed for me, 2.17.7 did not

Thanks for the report. We're going to audit pylint's entrypoints to astroid's inference system (infer, safe_infer, igetattr, etc.) and start catching RecursionError. Will handle in #9139
