This currently fails BestEffortCompilationTests
The problem is that i20317a.scala contains illegal cyclic references. The cycles cause many different algorithms in the compiler to loop. We normally reject the program, and that's that. But under best-effort, we crash with Stackoverflows in the loops later. What to do? It's not feasible to avoid the looping behavior at acceptable cost. Can we disable best effort under certain conditions?
