This code seems to hit the same ICE as #69487, except this also ICE's on stable, rather than #69487 only on nightly

Introduced in 1.36. Previous output:

 --> <source>:4:9

4 |         x

  = note: The rules on what exactly is undefined behavior aren't clear, so this check might be overzealous. Please open an issue on the rust compiler repository if you believe it should not be considered undefined behavior

Changing the following line

rust/src/librustc_mir/interpret/eval_context.rs

Line 136 in d0a746e

bug!("The type checker should prevent reading from a never-written local")

to throw_ub!(DeadLocal) instead produces the following output:

error[E0381]: use of possibly-uninitialized variable: `x`
 --> file77.rs:4:9
  |
4 |         x

CC @oli-obk would it be reasonable to track this with a new variant in UndefinedBehaviorInfo that emits a delay_span_bug instead?

Except this happens on stable, #69487 needs some opaque feature enabled. Should I make a comment there?

Edit: nevermind, you just did :)

[oli-obk]

Yea, it's the same issue :) just that you found a nice minimal example compared to the other issue. I thought we had a dedicated issue for evaluating not-typecked constants, but I wasn't able to find it.
