Given the following code, astroid will crash with a RuntimeError. The problem occurs because k is not inferred as the argument, but as the iterating element from the comprehension, which makes dict(**k) to be reevaluated at each inference step. This might be solved when we'll rewrite the lookup mechanism, since right now it's scattered all over the place.
