Some code cleanup, sorting of import blocks
Removed std::unstable::UnsafeArc's use of Either
Added run-fail tests for the new FailWithCause impls
Changed future_result and try to return Result<(), ~Any>.
- Internally, there is an enum of possible fail messages passend around.
- In case of linked failure or a string message, the ~Any gets
lazyly allocated in future_results recv method.
- For that, future result now returns a wrapper around a Port.
- Moved and renamed task::TaskResult into rt::task::UnwindResult
and made it an internal enum.
- Introduced a replacement typedef `type TaskResult = Result<(), ~Any>`.
After merging 0ada7c7, user code have not been able to access to `Ratio`'s numerator and denominator fields.
In some algorithms, it is needed to get an rational number's numerator or denominator, but keeping these fields private is necessary for guaranteeing that `Ratio` numbers are irreducible.
So, I added the getter methods `numer()` and `denom()`.
As a bonus, this commit adds utility methods relating to the ratio-integer conversion.
This is more progress towards #9128 and all its related tree of issues. This implements a new `BasicLoop` on top of pthreads synchronization primitives (wrapped in `LittleLock`). This also removes the wonky `callback_ms` function from the interface of the event loop.
After #9901 is taking forever to land, I'm going to try to do all this runtime work in much smaller chunks than before. Right now this will not work unless #9901 lands first, but I'm close to landing it (hopefully), and I wanted to go ahead and get this reviewed before throwing it at bors later on down the road.
This "pausible idle callback" is also a bit of a weird idea, but it wasn't as difficult to implement as callback_ms so I'm more semi-ok with it.
It's not guaranteed that there will always be an event loop to run, and this
implementation will serve as an incredibly basic one which does not provide any
I/O, but allows the scheduler to still run.

- Adds the `Sample` and `IndependentSample` traits for generating numbers where there are parameters (e.g. a list of elements to draw from, or the mean/variance of a normal distribution). The former takes `&mut self` and the latter takes `&self` (this is the only difference).
- Adds proper `Normal` and `Exp`-onential distributions
- Adds `Range` which generates `[lo, hi)` generically & properly (via a new trait) replacing the incorrect behaviour of `Rng.gen_integer_range` (this has become `Rng.gen_range` for convenience, it's far more efficient to use `Range` itself)
- Move the `Weighted` struct from `std::rand` to `std::rand::distributions` & improve it
- optimisations and docs
This reifies the computations required for uniformity done by
(the old) `Rng.gen_integer_range` (now Rng.gen_range), so that they can
be amortised over many invocations, if it is called in a loop.
Also, it makes it correct, but using a trait + impls for each type,
rather than trying to coerce `Int` + `u64` to do the right thing. This
also makes it more extensible, e.g. big integers could & should
implement SampleRange.
Instead of scrutinizing modification times in rustpkg tests,
change output files to be read-only and detect attempts to write
to them (hack suggested by Jack). This avoids time granularity problems.
As part of this change, I discovered that some dependencies weren't
getting written correctly (involving built executables and library
files), so this patch fixes that too.
This partly addresses #9441, but one test (test_rebuild_when_needed)
is still ignored on Linux.
Rewrite the entire `std::path` module from scratch.
`PosixPath` is now based on `~[u8]`, which fixes#7225.
Unnecessary allocation has been eliminated.
There are a lot of clients of `Path` that still assume utf-8 paths.
This is covered in #9639.
Standardize the is_sep() functions to be the same in both posix and
windows, and re-export from path. Update extra::glob to use this.
Remove the usage of either, as it's going away.
Move the WindowsPath-specific methods out of WindowsPath and make them
top-level functions of path::windows instead. This way you cannot
accidentally write code that will fail to compile on non-windows
architectures without typing ::windows anywhere.
Remove GenericPath::from_c_str() and just impl BytesContainer for
CString instead.
Remove .join_path() and .push_path() and just implement BytesContainer
for Path instead.
Remove FilenameDisplay and add a boolean flag to Display instead.
Remove .each_parent(). It only had one caller, so just inline its
definition there.
Add a new trait BytesContainer that is implemented for both byte vectors
and strings.
Convert Path::from_vec and ::from_str to one function, Path::new().
Remove all the _str-suffixed mutation methods (push, join, with_*,
set_*) and modify the non-suffixed versions to use BytesContainer.
Remove the old path.
Rename path2 to path.
Update all clients for the new path.
Also make some miscellaneous changes to the Path APIs to help the
adoption process.
(scratching an itch.)
Rebased and updated.
Fixed bug: omitted field init from embedded struct literal in a test.
Fixed bug: int underflow during padding length calculation.
