Latest Rust nightly does not work on FreeBSD

[alexreg]

I'm not sure when exactly it broke, but I suspect within the last few days. When I run rustc now, I get:

$ rustc
ELF binary type "0" not known.
/home/alexuk/.rustup/toolchains/nightly-x86_64-unknown-freebsd/bin/rustc: ELF: not found

And the output of readelf -h $(which rustc) is the following:

I'm using the latest version of Rustup, if it makes a difference. Did the build script get botched recently, or something?

[Mark-Simulacrum]

I'm guessing it's likely this is because of the rustbuild changes, though I'm not sure yet. Attempting to bisect...

[alexreg]

Okay, thanks for getting on this quickly @Mark-Simulacrum.

For the time being, rustup install nightly-2017-07-22 should work.

For me it seems like a problem with rustup. When I run rustc, I get the error, but if I run it directly ~/.rustup/.../nightly.../bin/rustc,, it works fine. I'm going to try updating rustup.

Edit: Wow, you are fast :) Between the time I noticed this and got around to checking on it, this was fixed. Kudos all around :)

[Mark-Simulacrum]

I'm hopeful that #43430 will fix this, so tomorrow's nightly should hopefully work again. Will ping here once it lands.
