ICE (unexpected TypeKind for left-hand side of `dyn*` cast) trying to convert `dyn* PointerLike` to `dyn* PointerLike`

[theemathas]

Code

#![feature(pointer_like_trait, dyn_star)]
#![allow(incomplete_features)]

use std::marker::PointerLike;

#[no_mangle]
pub fn lol(x: dyn* PointerLike) {
    foo(x);
}

fn foo<T: PointerLike>(x: T) {
    let _: dyn* PointerLike = x;
}

fn main() {}

I believe that the root issue here is that dyn* PointerLike implements PointerLike, despite not being pointer-like.

Meta

Reproducible on the playground with version 1.85.0-nightly (2024-12-19 9e136a30a965bf4e63f0)
