Compiler panics on build

[vitiral]

The compiler is panicking on commit 8361e35 of my project when I call cargo build:

# cargo build
   Compiling rst_app v0.2.1 (file:///home/garrett/projects/rst)
error: internal compiler error: unexpected panic                                                                                                                                                            [0/807]

note: the compiler unexpectedly panicked. this is a bug.

note: we would appreciate a bug report: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#bug-reports

note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` for a backtrace

error: Could not compile `rst_app`.

To learn more, run the command again with --verbose.

When I run with nightly-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu unchanged - rustc 1.15.0-nightly (7b3eeea22 2016-11-21) it seems to work.

This looks like a dupe of #37803 .

Is the bug gone when you rename your target directory? (don't delete it but keep it around for the case its no dupe and people want to investigate more)

[vitiral]

yup, that resolved the issue. Thanks!
