With a ridiculous amount of errors, ICE (capacity overflow)

check out the gist: https://gist.github.com/GBGamer/e5e6b049fd715b219db4

This is my own modification of the compiler which has no bounds checks (but which makes it unsafe to index). This is an issue whenever you have a ridiculous amount of errors, however.

This should never be encountered normally, but, you know, still an ICE.

[pnkfelix]

is this really actionable without a backtrace?

Update: oh sorry, I guess you put the backtrace at the top of the file.

[strega-nil]

@pnkfelix I just copy-pasted the output RUST_BACKTRACE=1 make

[pnkfelix]

@GBGamer funny, okay. I'm used to seeing the backtraces at the bottom after my error listings. (And thus I instinctively scrolled to the bottom of your gist.)

[strega-nil]

@pnkfelix yeah, I know, I was weirded out too :P

@ubsan do you happen to have a good way to trigger this error?

[kennytm]

Both links are dead 😢.

Given that we can no longer access the code to reproduce and that it seems to suggest that it requires bespoke modifications to the compiler, I'm inclined to close this unless @ubsan or someone can recreate the test case to show it's still relevant on today's compiler.

I agree with @bstrie
