In discussions with Gilad over issue #211, I wrote a test which the VM complains about. The issue is:

class Base<T> {}
class Derived extends Base<Derived> {} // legal

I believe the above should be a legal definition.

$ dart tests/language/src/CyclicTypeVariableTest.dart
type 'Base<Derived>' illegally refers to itself
