// Test that free regions ordering only goes one way. That is,
// we have `&'a Node<'b, T>`, which implies that `'a <= 'b`,
// but not `'b <= 'a`. Hence returning `&self.val` (which has lifetime
// `'a`) where `'b` is expected yields an error.
//
// This test began its life as a test for issue #4325.
