This can break code that looked like:
impl Foo for Box<Any> {
fn f(&self) { ... }
}
let x: Box<Any + Send> = ...;
x.f();
Change such code to:
impl Foo for Box<Any> {
fn f(&self) { ... }
}
let x: Box<Any> = ...;
x.f();
That is, upcast before calling methods.
This is a conservative solution to #5781. A more proper treatment (see
the xfail'd `trait-contravariant-self.rs`) would take variance into
account. This change fixes the soundness hole.
Some library changes had to be made to make this work. In particular,
`Box<Any>` is no longer showable, and only `Box<Any+Send>` is showable.
Eventually, this restriction can be lifted; for now, it does not prove
too onerous, because `Any` is only used for propagating the result of
task failure.
This patch also adds a test for the variance inference work in #12828,
which accidentally landed as part of DST.
Closes#5781.

This breaks a fair amount of code. The typical patterns are:
* `for _ in range(0, 10)`: change to `for _ in range(0u, 10)`;
* `println!("{}", 3)`: change to `println!("{}", 3i)`;
* `[1, 2, 3].len()`: change to `[1i, 2, 3].len()`.

This creates a stability baseline for all crates that we distribute that are not `std`. In general, all library code must start as experimental and progress in stages to become stable.
This obsoletes the old `to_err_msg` method. Replace
println!("Error: {}", failure.to_err_msg())
let string = failure.to_err_msg();
with
println!("Error: {}", failure)
let string = failure.to_str();

* The select/plural methods from format strings are removed
* The # character no longer needs to be escaped
* The \-based escapes have been removed
* '{{' is now an escape for '{'
* '}}' is now an escape for '}'

The following features have been removed
* box [a, b, c]
* ~[a, b, c]
* box [a, ..N]
* ~[a, ..N]
* ~[T] (as a type)
* deprecated_owned_vector lint
All users of ~[T] should move to using Vec<T> instead.
This completes the last stage of the renaming of the comparison hierarchy of
traits. This change renames TotalEq to Eq and TotalOrd to Ord.
In the future the new Eq/Ord will be filled out with their appropriate methods,
but for now this change is purely a renaming change.
[breaking-change]
This is part of the ongoing renaming of the equality traits. See #12517 for more
details. All code using Eq/Ord will temporarily need to move to Partial{Eq,Ord}
or the Total{Eq,Ord} traits. The Total traits will soon be renamed to {Eq,Ord}.

This has no tests because it's near impossible to test -- since TestFn uses
`proc`s, they can not be cloned or tested for equality. The only way to really
test this is making sure that for a given number of shards `a`, sharding from
1 to `a` yields the complete set of tests. But `filter_tests` takes its vector
by value and `proc`s cannot be compared.

The Float trait in libstd is quite a large trait which has dependencies on cmath
(libm) and such, which libcore cannot satisfy. It also has many functions that
libcore can implement, however, as LLVM has intrinsics or they're just bit
twiddling.
This commit moves what it can of the Float trait from the standard library into
libcore to allow floats to be usable in the core library. The remaining
functions are now resident in a FloatMath trait in the standard library (in the
prelude now). Previous code which was generic over just the Float trait may now
need to be generic over the FloatMath trait.

Previously the longer hand-written usage string was never being printed:
theoretically it was trying to detect when precisely `--help` was
passed (but not `-h`), but the getopts framework was considering a check
for the presence of `-h` to be a check for that of `--help` too,
i.e. the code was always going through the `-h` path.
This changes it to print the extended usage for both `-h` and `--help`,
meaning that it does actually appear correctly.
