mvce I guess

static a: str = todo!();

[workingjubilee]

This really shouldn't reach that code, so a fix would ideally try to find the error upstream and cut it off before it reaches there.

[workingjubilee]

Oh, I see, this fails on stable but ICEs on nightly, because... checking the sizedness of the return type during wellformedness checks, because the return type is ! and the return type we'd be coercing it to is unsized, results in a correctly failed assertion?

cc @compiler-errors

[workingjubilee]

This will have reached beta, I expect.
