Hi,

I glanced over the type parameters design draft but could not find whether the described behavior is intended or not.

What version of Go are you using (go version)?

go2go playground

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

Yes (if the playground runs the latest version)

What did you do?

https://go2goplay.golang.org/p/QSrT2JEXL7x

What did you expect to see?

I expected _ = []Container(T){} to type check;
instead, _ = [](Container(T)){} does type check.

The same pattern neither works with make, map, nor pointer types.

What did you see instead?

type checking failed for main
prog.go2:11:8: cannot use generic type Container(type T) without instantiation

Sorry for the issue, I found it in the design draft.
