+// original issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/129112
+// Previously, the "next" solver asserted that each successful solution is only obtained once.
+// This test exhibits a repro that, with next-solver + -Zthreads, triggered that old assert.
+// In the presence of multithreaded solving, it's possible to concurrently evaluate things twice,
+// which leads to replacing already-solved solutions in the global solution cache!
+// We assume this is fine if we check to make sure they are solved the same way each time.
+
+// This test only nondeterministically fails but that's okay, as it will be rerun by CI many times,
+// so it should almost always fail before anything is merged. As other thread tests already exist,
+// we already face this difficulty, probably. If we need to fix this by reducing the error margin,
+// we should improve compiletest.
