error[E0277]: the trait bound `u32: Trait` is not satisfied
  --> $DIR/trait_objects_fail.rs:26:9
   |
LL |     foo(&10_u32);
   |         ^^^^^^^ the trait `Trait` is not implemented for `u32`
   |
help: the trait `Trait<12>` is not implemented for `u32`
      but trait `Trait<2>` is implemented for it
  --> $DIR/trait_objects_fail.rs:7:1
   |
LL | impl Trait<2> for u32 {}
   | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
   = note: required for the cast from `&u32` to `&dyn Trait`

Pointing at the impl definition that could apply given a different self type is particularly useful when it has a blanket self type, as it might not be obvious and is not trivially greppable:
