[ChayimFriedman2]

It does error in rustc on stable, so either:

• The solver was changed (unlikely in this case I think) and we haven't updated yet, no need to change anything; or
• Inference has changed and we need to adapt, but this does limit the code to search (only recently changed code).

[ChayimFriedman2]

Okay this is rust-lang/rust#157820. We just need to copy the implementation from rustc.
