Synopsis: Repeated inheritance with generic features fails to work correctly
Description
If you repeatedly inherit a generic feature but define the different instances of the feature with different generic parameters, both features will be of the first generic type listed in the inheritance clause. I would have expected the different features to have the generic parameters specified within the inheriting class' inheritance clause.
To Reproduce
Just compile my attached example.

ECMA does not allow such things although the compiler should be complaining. See eweasel test#valid255.
