But I don't have a small reproducer for that - small examples "just work" (they do find the type definition, don't crash) - but in the larger one we still see the crash depending on exactly where the expression is evaluated (within a fully statically linked binary - so the definition is available, broadly speaking, no matter the context of evaluation - not sure what makes the difference)

I'll submit a PR later today to get us back to previous behaviour
