Code change:
I'm afraid I haven't minimised this test case. This doesn't seem to be a very serious problem as the compiler has correctly pointed out syntax errors; fixing those syntax errors makes the ICE go away. But since it suggested filing a bug I repro'd with today's nightly and have done so. : <!-- Include a backtrace in the code block by setting in your environment.

Is the solution possibly to just remove the offending assertion? The token stream will be nonsense but some other error reporting should catch the mismatched delimiters, I'd assume?
I just quickly tried the suggestion above (removing the assertion) and this is the error I got without it: Note that I tried a slightly simpler version of the small repro above: This still fails with ICE with the assertion.
I think I'm seeing the same issue with code containing a similar syntax error: The error is the fn does not have the closing paren. I see this on both release and debug builds: stable: beta: Nightly: Here is the error and stack from Rust Playground:
