Rust rookie here. Just installed twice, once with curl script, failed, then unistalled and used OSX package. No joy.

rustc --version
rustc 1.6.0 (c30b771ad 2016-01-19)

cat main.rs
fn main() {
println!("Hello, world!");
}

rustc main.rs

Maybe you forget to install xcode commandline tools, use xcode-select --install to install it

That fixed it. Thanks. I don't remember seeing that step in the instructions.
