ICE: expected item, found unknown node, caused by reexport.

[rodrimati1992]

Attempting to compile this code:

extern crate self as playground;

pub struct Hello;

pub use crate::playground::Hello as world;

Playground link: https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&edition=2018&gist=9ee5284237231c2287488a22ec49230a

Causes this ICE in nightly 2019-12-29 ,and stable with a slightly different stack trace.

error: internal compiler error: src/librustc/hir/map/mod.rs:882: expected item, found unknown node (hir_id=HirId { owner: DefIndex(0), local_id: 0 })

note: Some details are omitted, run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=full` for a verbose backtrace.

note: the compiler unexpectedly panicked. this is a bug.

note: we would appreciate a bug report: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#bug-reports

note: rustc 1.42.0-nightly (da3629b05 2019-12-29) running on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

note: compiler flags: -C codegen-units=1 -C debuginfo=2 --crate-type lib

note: some of the compiler flags provided by cargo are hidden

query stack during panic:
#0 [privacy_access_levels] privacy access levels
#1 [analysis] running analysis passes on this crate
end of query stack
error: aborting due to previous error

error: could not compile `playground`.

reduced to 2 lines:

pub extern crate self as name;
pub use name::name as bug;

also, when the pub is removed from the use line, OR both pub's are removed, it compiles fine.

@Centril yeah, I prepared the fix but @varkor has already submitted another fix so assignment is unnecessary?
