artisan route:list not working

When Type-hinting a custom request into the construct method in a controller, the command php artisan route:list stops working. For me it seemed to be like a bug because it works perfectly through HTTP Request, it only fails when using artisan route:list. Opening an issue at laravel/framework I was kind of ignored.

Output:

C:\wamp\www\projects\linus>php artisan route:list
PHP Fatal error:  Call to a member function make() on null in C:\wamp\www\projects\linus\vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Foundation\Http\FormRequest.php on line 76

  [Symfony\Component\Debug\Exception\FatalErrorException]
  Call to a member function make() on null

```

Controller

class TicketController extends Controller {

    protected $ticket;
    protected $request;

    function __construct(TicketRequest $request, Ticket $ticket) {
        $this->ticket = $ticket;
        $this->request = $request;
    }

    ...

}

If I remove the TicketRequest type-hint variable, the command works as expected. However, when making HTTP Requests, the Type-hint doesn't show any problem. In fact, the authorize method in it works just fine.
