Good morning,
This first patch series adds support for `#[deriving(Decodable, Encodable)]`, but does not yet remove `#[auto_encode]` and `#[auto_decode]`. I need a snapshot to remove the old code. Along the way it also extends support for tuple structs and struct enum variants.
Also, it includes a minor fix to the pretty printer. We decided a while ago to use 4 spaces to indent a match arm instead of 2. This updates the pretty printer to reflect that.
There's no unifying theme here; I'm just trying to clear a bunch of small commits: removing dead code, adding comments, renaming to an upper-case type, fixing one test case.
Revert map.each to something which takes two parameters rather than a tuple. The current setup iterates over `BaseIter<(&'self K, &'self V)>` where 'self is a lifetime declared *in the `each()` method*. You can't place such a type in the impl declaration. The compiler currently allows it, but this will not be legal under #5656 and I'm pretty sure it's not sound now. It's too bad that maps can't implement `BaseIter` (at least not over a tuple as they do here) but I think it has to be this way for the time being.

signature. In a nutshell, the idea is to (1) report an error if, for
a region pointer `'a T`, the lifetime `'a` is longer than any
lifetimes that appear in `T` (in other words, if a borrowed pointer
outlives any portion of its contents) and then (2) use this to assume
that in a function like `fn(self: &'a &'b T)`, the relationship `'a <=
'b` holds. This is needed for #5656. Fixes#5728.

#5758 take 2.
This adds a `#[packed]` attribute for structs, like GCC's `__attribute__((packed))`, e.g.
```rust
#[packed]
struct Size5 {
a: u8,
b: u32
}
```
It works on normal and tuple structs, but is (silently) ignored on enums.
Closes#1704.
A struct (inc. tuple struct) can be annotated with #[packed], so that there
is no padding between its elements, like GCC's `__attribute__((packed))`.
Closes#1704

Also:
* 3.2 is newer than 3.2svn, so I changed the ordering. (3.2svn is the version used between 3.2 and 3.3.)
* 3.3svn is added. This is the version you currently get from compiling LLVM trunk.
* 3.3 is added. 3.3 is not released yet, but this is the version used by http://llvm.org/apt/.
