Triage: still an issue.
I just hit this, though the error is a bit different now: "resolving bounds after type-checking" rather than "fulfilling during trans". error: internal compiler error: Encountered errors resolving bounds after type-checking note: the compiler unexpectedly panicked. this is a bug. note: we would appreciate a bug report: note: run with for a backtrace thread 'rustc' panicked at 'Box<Any', stack backtrace: 1: 0x7f91a71b237a -

ping how is this unsound?
Given that has seen fit to tag this as a soundness bug I'm nominating it so that it can receive a priority assessment, though I'll second ubsan in asking for a demonstration of the unsoundness here.
In general, having trait bounds that are not checked can lead to unsoundness, since some part of the code will assume that they hold when in fact they do not (consider, e.g., what might happen if the bound were ).
I'm going to mark this as P-medium and tag it from the specialization issue (it is specific to specialization, right?)
triage: P-medium
The code in the OP compiles for me with the latest nightly Rust (1.29.0-nightly ( 2018-08-01)). However, the following still fails (and I assume it's the same issue; if not I can file a new issue): Backtrace:
So I think this is "fixed-by-chalk", but this is fixed-by-chalk in a way that breaks specialization (cc Let's have a more easy-to-understand version of the problem: The problem is the following: our impl needs to prove the where-clause, which in the environment is . holds by (by the impl we are checking), so we can prove that obligation by (which will be a ) that depends on the . Therefore, wfchecking is OK. Therefore, fun. why isn't this a problem every time we have a projection? Normally, rustc normalizes to the real associated type, and then it can't find the , so no problem. With specialization, rustc can't normalize the associated type, so it sees the bug. I can't have a proof for this working, but this seems reasonably likely to work. way that might solve this in the rustc model would be to basically say that for any given trait ref, only the most specialized impl is supposed to be checking the wf requirement (for every trait-ref, there is always a most-specialized impl, so this is OK), and when checking wf, add the associated types for our own impl explicitly to our parameter environment (e.g., add - note no quantification over - to the param env in our example). That will make things normalize and work, and I'm not even sure is particularly ugly. I don't think it is less sound than , but then I don't quite know when is sound. what's going on with Chalk? Last time I saw it, the way we made implied bounds work was to move to the environment - in rustc terms, basically only allow it if we have proven the impl using . This solves the problem, because our impl was proven in a well-formed way, so a will ensure we make progress and there will be no cycles. The reason this does not work in specialization, is that we do want users to be able to prove things like , even while they might not know what is. For that, they need to have a keyed off a . I have no idea how to do this in the Chalk model. Was Chalk changed to do something else by now? Does this have a different interaction with specialization?
A PoC to show the unsoundness of this. It's a use-after free by 'copying' a String: Link to the playground:
This is fixed now: and needs a test
