impl_trait_in_bindings doesn't interact well with associated types yet

[Boscop]

I tried this code:

#![allow(incomplete_features)]
#![feature(impl_trait_in_bindings)]

trait Trait {
    type R;
}

struct A;
impl Trait for A {
    type R = i32;
}

static ARR: [impl Fn(<A as Trait>::R) -> <A as Trait>::R; 1] = [|x| x];

https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=nightly&mode=debug&edition=2018&gist=9aed9cb362dff5db78c7af96567f31ee

I expected to see this happen: It compiles.

Instead, this happened: Compiler error:

error[E0277]: expected a `std::ops::Fn<(i32,)>` closure, found `impl std::ops::Fn<(<A as Trait>::R,)>`
  --> src/lib.rs:13:13

   |
   = help: the trait `std::ops::Fn<(i32,)>` is not implemented for `impl std::ops::Fn<(<A as Trait>::R,)>`

error: aborting due to previous error

Btw, this is an abbreviated version of a real world use case of using impl_trait_in_bindings.

---

Btw, this compiles: static ARR: [impl Fn(i32) -> i32; 1] = [|x| x];

But this static ARR: [impl Fn(i32) -> i32; 0] = []; gives another error:

But IMO it should also compile.

The implementation has been removed so this can perhaps be closed?
