Issue 1:
The following code:

pub fn handle(_data: &[u8]) {}

pub fn handle_opt(iter: &mut Iterator<Item = &[u8]>) {
for data in *iter {
handle(data);
}
}

give the following LLVM assert error:

$ rustc --crate-type lib lib.rs
rustc: /home/rustbuild/src/rust-buildbot/slave/nightly-dist-rustc-linux/build/src/llvm/lib/IR/Instructions.cpp:281: void llvm::CallInst::init(llvm::Value*, llvm::ArrayRef<llvm::Value*>, const llvm::Twine&): Assertion `(i >= FTy->getNumParams() || FTy->getParamType(i) == Args[i]->getType()) && "Calling a function with a bad signature!"' failed.

I really have no idea what's the LLVM IR code generated which cause this error, as I don't know how to disable LLVM IR checks at compile-time :/

My Rust version:

Code

fn changer<'a>(mut things: Box<Iterator<Item=&'a mut u8>>) {

}
