Attempted to organize them in a way more relevant to what newbies
would be interested in hearing.
I am not satisfied by this at all, but by virtue of deleting old links alone I think it is an improvement.

* segfault due to not copying drop flag when coercing
* fat pointer casts
* segfault due to not checking drop flag properly
* debuginfo for DST smart pointers
* unreachable code in drop glue
There is no subtyping relationship between the types (or their non-freshened
variants), so they can not be merged.

Should fix#25235 (no test in issue).
Should fix#19976 (test is outdated).
I've been working with some archives generated by MSVC's `lib.exe` tool lately,
and it looks like the embedded name of the members in those archives sometimes
have slahes in the name (e.g. `foo/bar/baz.obj`). Currently the compiler chokes
on these paths as it assumes that each file in the archive is only the filename
(which is what unix does).
This commit interprets the name of each file in all archives as a path and then
only uses the `file_name` portion of the path to extract the file to a separate
location and then reassemble it back into a new archive later. Note that
duplicate filenames are already handled, so this won't introduce any conflicts.
I did a read through of the manual. This commit corrects various small points and expands some sections, while avoiding too much detail.

At the moment, http://doc.rust-lang.org/error-index.html isn't linked to from anywhere (except Reddit). This should allow search engines to find error codes!
I also capitalised "The Standard Library" and neatened a few bits of grammar.
Also fixed: `#[main]` inside one of the error descriptions.
Add diagnostic message for E0317, E0154, E0259 and E0260; part of #24407.
About E0317, I was unsure if I should add an example of what could be wrong, such as `struct i64`, `enum char { A, B }` or `type isize = i64`. I decided against it, since the diagnostic message looks clear enough to me.
What do you think?
I corrected some pretty obvious textual mistakes. One thing requires more attention - the paragraph at line 133 in Ownership. It was confusing, so I changed it, but I am no sure if this is what the author had in mind.
core::slice was originally written to tolerate overflow (notably, with
slices of zero-sized elements), but it was never updated to use wrapping
arithmetic when overflow traps were added.
Also correctly handle the case of calling .nth() on an Iter with a
zero-sized element type. The iterator was assuming that the pointer
value of the returned reference was meaningful, but that's not true for
zero-sized elements.
Fixes#25016.
It is currently broken to use syntax such as `<T as Foo>::U::static_method()` where `<T as Foo>::U` is an associated type. I was able to fix this and simplify the parser a bit at the same time.
This also fixes the corresponding issue with associated types (#22139), but that's somewhat irrelevant because #22519 is still open, so this syntax still causes an error in type checking.
Similarly, although this fix applies to associated consts, #25046 forbids associated constants from using type parameters or `Self`, while #19559 means that associated types have to always have one of those two. Therefore, I think that you can't use an associated const from an associated type anyway.
The loop to load all the known impls from external crates seems to have been used because `ty::populate_implementations_for_trait_if_necessary` wasn't doing its job, and solely relying on it resulted in loading only impls in the same crate as the trait.
Coherence for `librustc` was reduced from 18.310s to 0.610s, from stage1 to stage2.
Interestingly, type checking also went from 46.232s to 42.003s, though that could be noise or unrelated improvements.
On a smaller scale, `fn main() {}` now spends 0.003s in coherence instead of 0.368s, which fixes#22068.
It also peaks at only 1.2MB, instead of 16MB of heap usage.
