These really aren't documented well at all. The fact that doc comments end on a `*/` is really weird. I'm not sure if this is a mistake or not though.
None of the block comments are even mentioned in the [book nightly](http://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/book/comments.html). Probably should be fixed.
The first commit fixes the "jobserver unavailable" warning reported at gentoo/gentoo-rust#29. I don't think the warning is related to the compilation failure shown there.
The remaining commits are minor fixes I noticed while investigating the jobserver warning.
Simplify HIR folder so that it only maps 1 item to 1 item, removing a bunch of asserts. This is a small refactoring on the way to my larger branch for moving items out of line in the tree and isolating attempts to access them.

The example given for the manual implementation of the core::fmt::Debug trait doesn't match the output after the code sample. This updates it so it matches.
Emacs warns that makefile lines that start with spaces followed by
tabs are "suspicious". These were harmless since they were
continuation lines, but getting rid of the warning is nice and this
version looks better.
The important one is $(MAKE). make handles recipes containing the
literal string "$(MAKE)" specially, so it is important to make sure it
isn't evaluated until recipe invocation time.
BinaryHeap: Simplify sift down
Sift down was doing all too much work: it can stop directly when the
current element obeys the heap property in relation to its children.
In the old code, sift down didn't compare the element to sift down at
all, so it was maximally sifted down and relied on the sift up call to
put it in the correct location.
This should speed up heapify and .pop().
Also rename Hole::removed() to Hole::element()

sort: Fast path for already sorted data
When merging two sorted blocks `left` and `right` if the last element in
`left` is <= the first in `right`, the blocks are already in sorted order.
Add this as an additional fast path by simply copying the whole left
block into the output and advancing the left pointer. The right block is
then treated the same way by the already present logic in the merge
loop.
Can reduce runtime of .sort() to less than 50% of the previous, if the data
was already perfectly sorted. Sorted data with a few swaps are also
sorted quicker than before. The overhead of one comparison per merge
seems to be negligible.
This is my first code contribution to Rust, so I'm sure there are some issues with the changes I've made.
I've added the `quote_arg!`, `quote_block!`, `quote_path!`, and `quote_meta_item!` quasiquoting macros. From my experience trying to build AST in compiler plugins, I would like to be able to build any AST piece with a quasiquoting macro (e.g., `quote_struct_field!` or `quote_variant!`) and then use those AST pieces in other quasiquoting macros, but this pull request just adds some of the low-hanging fruit.
I'm not sure if these additions are desirable, and I'm sure these macros can be implemented in an external crate if not.
For now, this pass does some easy transformations, like eliminating
empty blocks that just jump to another block, some trivial
conversion of If terminators into Gotos and removal of dead blocks.

Did this alphabetically, so I didn't see [how `std` was doing things](https://dxr.mozilla.org/rust/source/src/libstd/lib.rs#215) till I was nearly finished. If you prefer to add crate-level-whitelists like std instead of test-level, I can rebase with that strategy.
A number of these commits can probably be dropped as the crates don't have much to test, and are deprecated. Let me know which if any to drop! (can also squash after review if desired)

`format_args!` doesn't support none Sized types so we should just pass it the references to `left_val` and `right_val`.
The following works:
```rust
assert!([1, 2, 3][..] == vec![1, 2, 3][..])
```
So I would expect this to as well:
```rust
assert_eq!([1, 2, 3][..], vec![1, 2, 3][..])
```
But it fails with "error: the trait `core::marker::Sized` is not implemented for the type `[_]` [E0277]"
I don't know if this change will have any nasty side effects I don't understand.
