As of Haxe 4.3.5 our project compile never finishes

See https://github.com/snikket-im/snikket-sdk on 4.3.2 or 4.3.4 running haxe browserjs.hxml for example finished in a second or two. As of 4.3.5 and 4.3.6 instead it never finishes. Running with --verbose shows and end like this:

Typing haxe.format.JsonPrinter.ipad
Typing haxe.format.JsonPrinter.quote
Parsed /tmp/haxe-4.3.5-linux64/haxe_20240718142605_bd79571/std/Date.hx
Typing haxe.format.JsonPrinter.classString
Parsed /tmp/haxe-4.3.5-linux64/haxe_20240718142605_bd79571/std/haxe/ds/IntMap.hx
Parsed /tmp/haxe-4.3.5-linux64/haxe_20240718142605_bd79571/std/haxe/ds/ObjectMap.hx

then it just hangs there.

This may be related to #11811 though it seems theirs eventually finishes (our never does, after over a half hour) and the log smells different. But the versions affected are certainly the same.

Bisect shows that the first bad commit is fbec81a

Confirmed that if I checkout 4.3.6 and then revert fbec81a that the result can build out code just fine and quickly.

Just deleting the line let e2 = loop e2 in is enough to make the compile finish

[singpolyma]

Could you try if it works when you move that line below the let m = Abstract.get_underlying_type a pl in line?

yes moving it there also fixes it

@FrancisBourre Could you check if this fixed your problem too?
