Btw. "Lifetimes in statics and consts default to 'static. " is still wrong, as the feature wasn’t backported to the beta (this has been mentioned in the PR, but I guess nobody noticed it). I’m too busy ATM to send a PR to fix it, could somebody else do it?

I successfully tested all 4 windows builds with rustup, x86_64 linux, and one of the .msis.
