An example that causes the error.

I think I tricked the compiler into trying to use two contexts in a template, or something. I was making a thing that would be like prepare!(type, "foo", args...).fire!(sometypes...), then for each type it would fire type().foo(args...). And it died the death, so I started simplifying it, until I discarded the variadicness, the types, the arguments, the functions, and everything except a template inside a template, pretty much.

There is no error in my code if I use an rvalue or literal like 42. There is no error if I use a global variable defined outside the function. But if I use a local variable like "derp" it dies with an internal compiler error. Even if I have a version block preventing it from being compiled, it still kills the compiler. Even if the variable is outright immutable.
