this.type doesn't work with parameterised types

[scabug]

Scala gives errors if you try to use this in combination with parameterised types:

scala> class A { val me: this.type = this }
defined class A

scala> class B { val maybeMe: Option[this.type] = Some(this) }
<console>:5: error: type mismatch;
 found   : Some[B]
 required: Option[B.this.type]
         val maybeMe: Option[this.type] = Some(this)
                                          ^
