    A // The name of the typedef

// Cyclic through type variable bound.
<T extends A> //# 10: compile-time error

// Cyclic through generic type variable bound.
<T extends List<A>> //# 11: compile-time error

    (// The left parenthesis of the typedef arguments.

// Cyclic through parameter type.
A a //# 02: compile-time error

// Cyclic through optional parameter type.
[A a] //# 03: compile-time error

// Cyclic through named parameter type.
{A a} //# 04: compile-time error

// Cyclic through generic parameter type.
List<A> a //# 05: compile-time error

// Cyclic through return type of function typed parameter.
A f() //# 06: compile-time error

// Cyclic through parameter type of function typed parameter.

// Cyclic through another typedef.
B b //# 08: compile-time error

// Cyclic through another more typedefs.
