Failure to compile on Rust nightly 1.70.0

[janhohenheim]

I'm not using this crate at all, but it is a transient dependency of mine and I recently got a CI failure.
It seems like objc2-0.3.0-beta.3.patch-leaks.2 fails to compile on Rust nightly 1.70.0, but compiles on nightly 1.69.0.

Thank you for the report! I've verified that it is present on master as well.

It seems more like a std or rustc bug though? The bounds on our Iterator impl should be completely fine, but it now fails due to the Self::Item: ~const Destruct bound on fn nth added in rust-lang/rust#104100.

I'll probably submit a regression report upstream in the next few days (if you don't do it first?).

Since you actually know about the soundness of your code, I'd be glad if you could submit it 🙂

I'm not sure if the ~const Destruct bound is the culprit, since it should have no effect on code that are not using const trait bounds.

@fee1-dead be aware that the main issue here that it's a regression from stable to nightly since the latest stable builds this code just fine.

I could submit bug report as well though, but I'm not a maintainer of this crate, and not sure I can clearly express the issue other than saying that code was fine on stable for like near a year.

[fee1-dead]

I wasn't denying that the regression exists. I was mainly coming from a rustc maintainer perspective since I approved the linked PR above. To find the actual change that caused this would involve cargo-bisect-rustc. I don't have time to run that right now, but opening a rust-lang/rust issue would help as well.

Opened upstream ticket rust-lang/rust#109632

[madsmtm]

I'd like to wait and see what happens upstream, since it is a rustc bug, but if the issue persists for let's say ~5 days more, I'll push a patched objc2 version to deal with it regardless

Update: I've created a new version 0.3.0-beta.3.patch-leaks.3, so affected nightly users should simply be able to do a cargo update to fix the issue for them.

@fee1-dead created rust-lang/rust#109684, so I suspect that the issue will be fixed properly soon - I will keep this issue open until that happens.
