The fix is straight-forward, but there are several changes
while fixing the issue.
1) disallow `mut` keyword when making a new struct
In code base, there are following code,
```rust
struct Foo { mut a: int };
let a = Foo { mut a: 1 };
```
This is because of structural record, which is
deprecated corrently (see issue #3089) In structural
record, `mut` keyword should be allowd to control
mutability. But without structural record, we don't
need to allow `mut` keyword while constructing struct.
2) disallow structural records in parser level
This is related to 1). With structural records, there
is an ambiguity between empty block and empty struct
To solve the problem, I change parser to stop parsing
structural records. I think this is not a problem,
because structural records are not compiled already.
Misc. issues
There is an ambiguity between empty struct vs. empty match stmt.
with following code,
```rust
match x{} {}
```
Two interpretation is possible, which is listed blow
```rust
match (x{}) {} // matching with newly-constructed empty struct
(match x{}) {} // matching with empty enum(or struct) x
// and then empty block
```
It seems that there is no such code in rust code base, but
there is one test which uses empty match statement:
https://github.com/mozilla/rust/blob/incoming/src/test/run-pass/issue-3037.rs
All other cases could be distinguished with look-ahead,
but this can't be. One possible solution is wrapping with
parentheses when matching with an uninhabited type.
```rust
enum what { }
fn match_with_empty(x: what) -> ~str {
match (x) { //use parentheses to remove the ambiguity
}
}
```
- Removed space between struct name and parentheses
- Fixed indentation of the rest of the file (missing end)
- Don't print parentheses for structs with no fields
- Added test

This removes all but 6 uses of `drop {}` from the entire codebase. Removing any of the remaining uses causes various non-trivial bugs; I'll start reporting them once this gets merged.
Major changes are:
- replace ~[ty_param] with Generics structure, which includes
both OptVec<TyParam> and OptVec<Lifetime>;
- the use of syntax::opt_vec to avoid allocation for empty lists;

After this patch, macros declared in a module, function, or block can only be used inside of that module, function or block, with the exception of modules declared with the #[macro_escape] attribute; these modules allow macros to escape, and can be used as a limited macro export mechanism.
This pull request also includes miscellaneous comments, lots of new test cases, a few renamings, and a few as-yet-unused data definitions for hygiene.
Macro scope is now delimited by function, block, and module boundaries,
except for modules that are marked with #[macro_escape], which allows
macros to escape.
