* SI-6912 Avoid a typer cycle in overload resolution.Jason Zaugg2013-01-081-0/+9
c800d1fe, and followup commits 1ddc9358 and b10b5821 modified error handling in `Infer#inferExprAlternative`. After these changes, this method could fail to resolve the overloaded alternative if: best != NoSymbol && !competing.isEmpty && !noAlternatives && pt.isErroneous This commit calls `setError` in that case, which prevents the cycle in `adapt`. While I didn't extract a reproduction from the original code base, I've included a test case that exhibits the same symptom. It was actually pretty tough to find an program that got close to this code path, but luckilly we've been pretty close to this bug in SI-5553 / 4f99c2e5, and those test cases formed the basis for this one.
