`RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded` after upadte

Hi,

after merging the dependabot PR Bump postcss-nesting from 8.0.1 to 9.0.0 our pipeline fails with the following error:

#17 24.92 ERROR in ./assets/styles/admin-app.css

The admin-css.app only imports some css files, like quill.snow.css. Because quill is mentioned in the stacktrace (/opt/app/node_modules/quill/dist/quill.snow.css:39:3) I looked into the css file but there is nothing suspicious: https://cdn.quilljs.com/1.3.7/quill.snow.css

Before the update to postcss-nesting 9.0.0 everything worked as expected. Do you guys have any clue whats the cause of this problem?

Thanks in advance.

Could you try to turn off postcss-nesting? I didn't see postcss-nesting in stacktrace.

Removing postcss-nesting from the project solves the problem... I removed postcss-nesting from my package.json and webpack config:

const postCssConfig = [
    plugins: [
      require('stylelint')()
    ]
  }),

- require('tailwindcss/nesting')(require('postcss-nesting')),
  require('tailwindcss'),
  require('postcss-preset-env')({
    stage: 1,
    features: { 'nesting-rules': false }
  })

  })

I have a similar usage (use postcss-nesting with tailwindcss), and I see this error as well.

However, I can't be sure if it was caused by postcss-nesting actually (even though removing that line from config seems to fix this problem) because I also tried to remove postcss-preset-env instead of postcss-nesting and it did fix the problem too! (of course, all transformations are gone except nesting).

Don't know what is the correct way to solve this, stay on hold.

Would it be possible to create an example repo with this issue?
Don't have any experience with tailwind but if we can reproduce the issue locally we might be able to resolve it.
