The `std::cmp` functions are not correct for floating point types.
`min(NaN, 2.0)` and `min(2.0, NaN)` return different values, because
these functions assume a total order. Floating point types need special
`min`, `max` and `clamp` functions.
I added a new lint for variables whose names contain uppercase characters, since, by convention, variable names should be all lowercase. What motivated me to work on this was when I ran into something like the following:
```rust
use std::io::File;
use std::io::IoError;
fn main() {
let mut f = File::open(&Path::new("/something.txt"));
let mut buff = [0u8, ..16];
match f.read(buff) {
Ok(cnt) => println!("read this many bytes: {}", cnt),
Err(IoError{ kind: EndOfFile, .. }) => println!("Got end of file: {}", EndOfFile.to_str()),
}
}
```
I then got compile errors when I tried to add a wildcard match pattern at the end which I found very confusing since I believed that the 2nd match arm was only matching the EndOfFile condition. The problem is that I hadn't imported io::EndOfFile into the local scope. So, I thought that I was using EndOfFile as a sub-pattern, however, what I was actually doing was creating a new local variable named EndOfFile. This lint makes this error easier to spot by providing a warning that the variable name EndOfFile contains a uppercase characters which provides a nice hint as to why the code isn't doing what is intended.
The lint warns on local bindings as well:
```rust
let Hi = 0;
```
And also struct fields:
```rust
struct Something {
X: uint
}
```
Linker argument order with respect to libraries is important enough that we
shouldn't be attempting to filter out libraries getting passed through to the
linker. When linking with a native library that has multiple dependant native
libraries, it's useful to have control over the link argument order.
- Added `TraitObject` representation to `std::raw`.
- Added doc to `std::raw`.
- Removed `Any::as_void_ptr()` and `Any::as_mut_void_ptr()`
methods as they are uneccessary now after the removal of
headers on owned boxes. This reduces the number of virtual calls needed from 2 to 1.
- Made the `..Ext` implementations work directly with the repr of
a trait object.
- Removed `Any`-related traits from the prelude.
- Added bench.

While we are not yet ready for compiler i18n, this also keeps the error handling code clean. The set of altered error messages was obtained by grepping for `"s"` and `(s)`, so there might be some missing messages.
syntax: make match arms store the expr directly.
Previously `ast::Arm` was always storing a single `ast::Expr` wrapped in an
`ast::Block` (for historical reasons, AIUI), so we might as just store
that expr directly.
Closes#3085.

The incompatibility of rust-mode with global-whitespace-mode warned
about in the README was actually fixed by commit 581b3db3b3. Remove the
warning from the README and close#3994.

A couple of syntax extensions manually expanded expressions, but it
wasn't done universally, most noticably inside of asm!().
There's also a bit of random cleanup.

According to `/etc/terminfo/README`,
```
This directory is for system-local terminfo descriptions. By default,
ncurses will search ${HOME}/.terminfo first, then /etc/terminfo (this
directory), then /lib/terminfo, and last not least /usr/share/terminfo.
```
This commit let librustc automatically pickup LDFLAGS dependencies
inherited from LLVM, which may otherwise result in undefined
references to external symbols under certain linking environment.
A symptom of this issue is eg. a failure when trying to link against
librustc (due to unresolved ffi_* symbols), while using a system-wide
LLVM.
