+//! Check that associated items can be marked as lang items, so that they don't have to be looked up
+//! by name or by definition order indirectly.
+//!
+//! This test is not *quite* high-fidelity: it checks that you can use lang items on associated
+//! items by looking at the error message *as a proxy*. That is, the error message is about
+//! undefined lang items and not invalid attribute target, indicating that it has reached lang item
+//! machinery (which is relying on knowing the implementation detail). However, it's annoying to
+//! write a full-fidelity test for this, so I think this is acceptable even though it's not *great*.
+//!
+//! This was implemented in <https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/72559> to help with
+//! <https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/70718>, which is itself relevant for e.g. `Fn::Output`
+//! or `Future::Output` or specific use cases like [Use `T`'s discriminant type in
+//! `mem::Discriminant<T>` instead of `u64`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/70705).
