The following will crash the compiler:

class Foo (x: AnyRef) {
  def this() = {
    this(new Object { println(Foo.this) } )
  }
}

Presumably it's invalid to reference "this" before calling the primary constructor, but the compiler should give an error rather than crashing.

I get a stack trace that begins with

error: java.lang.Error: no-symbol does not have owner
