[weld-dev] Infinite mutual recursion in HierarchyDiscovery.resolveType

[Pete Muir]

Please file an issue in JIRA scheduled for CR2, mentioning this test  
case, and add the test to the group "broken". This means that we don't  
see known failures in the the testsuite but still track them for  
fixing (this is essential to allow us to see whether unrelated commits  
break know-working tests).
