I'm trying to build rust 1.1.0 from source with gcc 4.8.1. I'm using --enable-local-rust
because my build environment cannot curl out to the web to download a snapshot. I tried building with a prebuilt 1.1.0, but got these errors: Build Errors with 1.1.0 · GitHub. With 1.0.0, I got far fewer errors, but still encountered errors: Build Errors with 1.0.0 · GitHub. What version of Rust should I be using to build 1.1.0?
You'd need a nightly that matches 1.1.0's snapshot compiler's version closely. This option is not (not yet at least) intended to work with stable releases of Rust.

What's the best way to determine what snapshot to use?
For anyone else hitting this for 1.1.0, the linux x86_64 binary for this is https://static.rust-lang.org/stage0-snapshots/rust-stage0-2015-04-27-857ef6e-linux-x86_64-94089740e48167c5975c92c139ae9c286764012f.tar.bz2
Thanks for the help everyone!
