In the general case, at least, it is not possible to make an object out of an unsized type. This is because the object type would have to store the fat pointer information for the `self` value *and* the vtable -- meaning it'd have to be a fat pointer with three words -- but for the compiler to know that the object requires three words, it would have to know the self-type of the object (is `self` a thin or fat pointer?), which of course it doesn't.
Fixes#18333.

region binding at the impl site, so for method types that come from impls,
it is necessary to liberate/instantiate late-bound regions at multiple

This breaks code that referred to variant names in the same namespace as
their enum. Reexport the variants in the old location or alter code to
refer to the new locations:

A,

let a = A;
}
```
=>
```
pub use self::Foo::{A, B};
pub enum Foo {
A,

fn main() {
let a = A;
}
```
or
```
pub enum Foo {
A,
B
}
fn main() {
let a = Foo::A;

This commit deprecates the entire libtime library in favor of the
externally-provided libtime in the rust-lang organization. Users of the
`libtime` crate as-is today should add this to their Cargo manifests:
[dependencies.time]
git = "https://github.com/rust-lang/time"
To implement this transition, a new function `Duration::span` was added to the
`std::time::Duration` time. This function takes a closure and then returns the
duration of time it took that closure to execute. This interface will likely
improve with `FnOnce` unboxed closures as moving in and out will be a little
easier.
Due to the deprecation of the in-tree crate, this is a:

cc #18855, some of the conversions in the `src/test/bench` area may have been a
little nicer with that implemented
I wanted to embed an `Rc<TraitRef>`, but I was foiled by the current
static rules, which prohibit non-Sync values from being stored in
static locations. This means that the constants for `ty_int` and so
forth cannot be initialized.
Key points are:
1. `a + b` maps directly to `Add<A,B>`, where `A` and `B` are the types of `a` and `b`.
2. Indexing and slicing autoderefs consistently.
As part of the collections reform RFC, this commit removes all collections
traits in favor of inherent methods on collections themselves. All methods
should continue to be available on all collections.
This is a breaking change with all of the collections traits being removed and
no longer being in the prelude. In order to update old code you should move the
trait implementations to inherent implementations directly on the type itself.
Note that some traits had default methods which will also need to be implemented
to maintain backwards compatibility.

- The signature of the `*_equiv` methods of `HashMap` and similar structures have changed, and now require one less level of indirection. Change your code from:
``` rust
hashmap.find_equiv(&"Hello");
hashmap.find_equiv(&&[0u8, 1, 2]);
```
to:
``` rust
hashmap.find_equiv("Hello");
hashmap.find_equiv(&[0u8, 1, 2]);
```
- The generic parameter `T` of the `Hasher::hash<T>` method have become `Sized?`. Downstream code must add `Sized?` to that method in their implementations. For example:
``` rust
impl Hasher<FnvState> for FnvHasher {
fn hash<T: Hash<FnvState>>(&self, t: &T) -> u64 { /* .. */ }
}
```
must be changed to:
``` rust
impl Hasher<FnvState> for FnvHasher {
fn hash<Sized? T: Hash<FnvState>>(&self, t: &T) -> u64 { /* .. */ }
// ^^^^^^

This PR aims to improve the readability of diagnostic messages that involve unresolved type variables. Currently, messages like the following:
```rust
mismatched types: expected `core::result::Result<uint,()>`, found `core::option::Option<<generic #1>>`
<anon>:6 let a: Result<uint, ()> = None;
^~~~
mismatched types: expected `&mut <generic #2>`, found `uint`
<anon>:7 f(42u);
^~~
```
tend to appear unapproachable to new users. [0] While specific type var IDs are valuable in
diagnostics that deal with more than one such variable, in practice many messages
only mention one. In those cases, leaving out the specific number makes the messages
slightly less terrifying.
```rust
mismatched types: expected `core::result::Result<uint, ()>`, found `core::option::Option<_>`
<anon>:6 let a: Result<uint, ()> = None;
^~~~
mismatched types: expected `&mut _`, found `uint`
<anon>:7 f(42u);
^~~
```
As you can see, I also tweaked the aesthetics slightly by changing type variables to use the type hole syntax _. For integer variables, the syntax used is:
```rust
mismatched types: expected `core::result::Result<uint, ()>`, found `core::option::Option<_#1i>`
<anon>:6 let a: Result<uint, ()> = Some(1);
```
and float variables:
```rust
mismatched types: expected `core::result::Result<uint, ()>`, found `core::option::Option<_#1f>`
<anon>:6 let a: Result<uint, ()> = Some(0.5);
```

This commit enables implementations of IndexMut for a number of collections,
including Vec, RingBuf, SmallIntMap, TrieMap, TreeMap, and HashMap. At the same

mismatched types: expected `core::result::Result<uint,()>`, found `core::option::Option<<generic #1>>`
<anon>:6 let a: Result<uint, ()> = None;
^~~~
mismatched types: expected `&mut <generic #2>`, found `uint`

tend to be fairly unappealing to new users. While specific type var IDs are valuable in
diagnostics that deal with more than one such variable, in practice many messages
only mention one. In those cases, leaving out the specific number makes the messages
slightly less terrifying.
In addition, type variables have been changed to use the type hole syntax `_` in diagnostics.
With a variable ID, they're printed as `_#id` (e.g. `_#1`). In cases where the ID is left out,
it's simply `_`. Integer and float variables have an additional suffix after the number, e.g.
`_#1i` or `_#3f`.

The current terminology of "task failure" often causes problems when
writing or speaking about code. You often want to talk about the
possibility of an operation that returns a Result "failing", but cannot
because of the ambiguity with task failure. Instead, you have to speak
of "the failing case" or "when the operation does not succeed" or other
circumlocutions.
Likewise, we use a "Failure" header in rustdoc to describe when
operations may fail the task, but it would often be helpful to separate
out a section describing the "Err-producing" case.
We have been steadily moving away from task failure and toward Result as
an error-handling mechanism, so we should optimize our terminology
accordingly: Result-producing functions should be easy to describe.
To update your code, rename any call to `fail!` to `panic!` instead.
Assuming you have not created your own macro named `panic!`, this
will work on UNIX based systems:
grep -lZR 'fail!' . | xargs -0 -l sed -i -e 's/fail!/panic!/g'
You can of course also do this by hand.

This adds a `Substs` field to `ty_unboxed_closure` and plumbs basic
handling of it throughout the compiler. trans now correctly
monomorphizes captured free variables and llvm function defs. This
fixes uses of unboxed closures which reference a free type or region
parameter from their environment in either their signature or free
variables. Closes#16791
Spring cleaning is here! In the Fall! This commit removes quite a large amount
of deprecated functionality from the standard libraries. I tried to ensure that
only old deprecated functionality was removed.
This is removing lots and lots of deprecated features, so this is a breaking
change. Please consult the deprecation messages of the deleted code to see how
to migrate code forward if it still needs migration.

- Unify the representations of `cat_upvar` and `cat_copied_upvar`
- In `link_reborrowed_region`, account for the ability of upvars to
change their mutability due to later processing. A map of recursive
region links we may want to establish in the future is maintained,
with the links being established when the kind of the borrow is
adjusted.
- When categorizing upvars, add an explicit deref that represents the
closure environment pointer for closures that do not take the
environment by value. The region for the implicit pointer is an
anonymous free region type introduced for this purpose. This
creates the necessary constraint to prevent unsound reborrows from
the environment.
- Add a note to categorizations to make it easier to tell when extra
dereferences have been inserted by an upvar without having to
perform deep pattern matching.
- Adjust borrowck to deal with the changes. Where `cat_upvar` and
`cat_copied_upvar` were previously treated differently, they are
now both treated roughly like local variables within the closure
body, as the explicit derefs now ensure proper behavior. However,
error diagnostics had to be changed to explicitly look through the
extra dereferences to avoid producing confusing messages about
references not present in the source code.
Closes issue #17403. Remaining work:
- The error diagnostics that result from failed region inference are
pretty inscrutible and should be improved.
Code like the following is now rejected:
let mut x = 0u;
let f = || &mut x;
let y = f();
let z = f(); // multiple mutable references to the same location
This also breaks code that uses a similar construction even if it does
not go on to violate aliasability semantics. Such code will need to
be reworked in some way, such as by using a capture-by-value closure
type.

over inherent methods accessible via more autoderefs.
This simplifies the trait matching algorithm. It breaks code like:
impl Foo {
fn foo(self) {
// before this change, this will be called
}
}
impl<'a,'b,'c> Trait for &'a &'b &'c Foo {
fn foo(self) {
// after this change, this will be called
}
}
fn main() {
let x = &(&(&Foo));
x.foo();
}
To explicitly indicate that you wish to call the inherent method, perform
explicit dereferences. For example:
fn main() {
let x = &(&(&Foo));
(***x).foo();
}
