This looks like rust-lang/rust#16496

Is there a symlink in your directory hierarchy somewhere?

[jdm]

If I recall correctly, this is a problem that stems from a symlink being present in the build path. There's a Rust issue filed about it.

[nham]

I'm having the same problem on Arch Linux. Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't believe there are any symlinks in my path, though the build directory is on a mounted NTFS partition.

[mcepl]

yes, ~/repos is a symlink.

[frewsxcv]

This hasn't been reported in a while, probably okay to close this?

[mcepl]

Yes, it is working well with 3d4122e
