Description

This was deleted in https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/59413

I find it quite hard to believe Cthulhu has been broken on master for 4 months, but maybe that's true?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Cthulhu pre-compilation failure on Julia master and inspect references to Compiler.ConstPropResult, which the issue says was deleted in Julia PR 59413. Trace the affected compatibility path and confirm that Cthulhu pre-compiles without the UndefVarError; no specific source file or test is named in the issue.
