+// rust-lang/rust#45696: This test checks the compiler won't infinite loop when
+// you declare a variable of type `struct A(Box<A>, ...);` (which is impossible
+// to construct but *is* possible to declare; see also issues #4287, #44933,
+// and #52852).
+
+// run-pass
+
+// This test has structs and functions that are by definition unusable
+// all over the place, so just go ahead and allow dead_code
+#![allow(dead_code)]

+// These enums are cases that are not currently hit by the
+// `visit_terminator_drop` recursion down a type's structural
+// definition.
+//
+// But it seems prudent to include them in this test as variants on
+// the above, in that they are similarly non-constructable data types
+// with destructors that would diverge.
