Compile failures with 1.15.0-nightly (2016-11-14)

Hello all.

My mockers project just failed to compile on Travis CI with latest nighly:

and I don't understand why.

Additionally, when I try to compile mockers_codegen locally, cargo says:

error: Package `mockers_codegen v0.5.3` does not have these features:  debug`

while it is here:

❯❯ grep -B19 debug Cargo.toml

The first issue is rust-lang/rust#37786 and will be fixed in the next nightly.

I usually put something like the following in my .travis.yml:

language: rust

rust:
  - stable
  - beta
  - nightly

matrix:
  allow_failures:
    - rust: nightly

Then TravisCI won't consider nightly failures as a build failure, but you'll still have a record.

Oh, ok, thank you.

Thanks. But nightly is in fact primary platform for my project :slight_smile:

Now the only problem left is one with unknown feature.
