I get this error whenever i use invoke a macro that captures external vairables, either by logging with println or using serde_json's json! macro. this used to work, now it simply doesn't.

nightly => rustc 1.27.0-nightly (7360d6dd6 2018-04-15)

Can you help reproduce this? When I tried it, the following seems to work with rustc 1.27.0-nightly (7360d6dd6 2018-04-15).

#[macro_use]
extern crate serde_json;

fn main() {
    let v = 1;
    println!("{}", json!({"k": v}));
}

extern crate futures_await as futures;
#[macro_use] extern crate serde_json;
use futures::prelude::*;


#[async]
pub fn test() -> Result<Value, ()> {
	let lk = "haha, i'm a str";
	#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]
	struct Payment {
		usd: u32,
	}
	let Payment { usd } = Payment { usd: 76 };
	let res = match await!(f_future()) {
		Ok(a) => a,
		Err(err) => panic!("{:?}", err)
	};
	println!("{}", lk);
	println!("{:?}", &res);
	let json = json!({
		"usd": usd,
		"res": res
	});
	Ok(json)
}

fn f_future() -> impl Future<Item = bool, Error = ()> {
	arc_reactor::futures::future::ok(true)
}

try compiling with cargo rustc -- -Z external-macro-backtrace, you should get:

I minimized this further and filed rust-lang/rust#50061 to follow up. Thanks!
