Rust is confused by variants and structs #19293

Description

(the title of this issue is terrible, sorry!)

As demonstrated in this repository

lib.rs

pub struct Foo (pub int);
pub enum MyEnum {
    Foo(Foo),
}

test.rs

extern crate meow;
use meow::{Foo, MyEnum};
#[test]
fn test() {
    MyEnum::Foo(Foo(5));
}

Shouldn't this test work? Right now, it thinks the inner Foo is the MyEnum::Foo variant, which is not the case.

Caused by:
  Process didn't exit successfully: `rustc /private/tmp/meow/meow/tests/test.rs --crate-name test --crate-type bin -g --test -C metadata=35d1dbe396721794 -C extra-filename=-35d1dbe396721794 --out-dir /private/tmp/meow/meow/target --dep-info /private/tmp/meow/meow/target/.fingerprint/meow-df845645e3f32c19/dep-test-bin-test -L /private/tmp/meow/meow/target -L /private/tmp/meow/meow/target/deps --extern meow=/private/tmp/meow/meow/target/libmeow-df845645e3f32c19.rlib` (status=101)

I feel like this is one of those moment where I'm doing something very obviously wrong.
