ICE with wrong method receiver as second parameter

[jfrimmel]

The following code (on compiler explorer) leads to an ICE:

struct Foo;
impl Foo {
    // mind the missing `>` of the receiver
    pub fn foo(_: i32, self: Box<Self) {}
}

Broken since 1.32.0 up to the current nightly, earlier versions are not affected.

error: internal compiler error: unexpected panic

note: the compiler unexpectedly panicked. this is a bug.

note: we would appreciate a bug report: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#bug-reports

note: rustc 1.38.0-nightly (71f9384e3 2019-07-12) running on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

note: compiler flags: -C debuginfo=2 -C incremental --crate-type bin

note: some of the compiler flags provided by cargo are hidden

@rustbot claim

[estebank]

@goodmanjonathan you will need to change the line

rust/src/libsyntax/parse/parser.rs

Line 1501 in cc481a4

if let Ok(Some(mut arg)) = self.parse_self_arg() {

to bubble the parse_self_arg error up:

if let Some(mut arg) = self.parse_self_arg()? {

Once you've done that code change create a new test file in src/test/ui/parser/issue-62660.rs.
