Extremely un-informative error when a future that capture the environment is used as Send

[Ciel-MC]

Code

use futures::prelude::future::{join_all, FutureExt};

const THING: () = ();
async fn foo() {
    let updates = [async {}.then(|()| async move {
        &THING
    })];
    join_all(updates).await;
}

fn trouble() -> impl Send {
    foo()
}

Current output

error[E0308]: mismatched types

(Happens on nightly too)

Anything else?

The code compiles without the reference, so I'm guessing it's to do with the Future being made "unique" by that even though it doesn't actually contain any "real" captures that should make the closure different.

We discussed this in the async meeting today. We think this is probably related to:
