You need to go down since you need a Rust version that is less strict
with macros.

As I said, the best way is to work on the NodeJS workaround that the Solaris
developers are using. I might write something down for that tomorrow and then
you can try whether you can get it working.

Hello Adrian,

both rustc 1.31 and 1.32 fail during configure:

I suppose sbuild cleans everything between builds..or do i need to clean something?

Otherwise i will go higher or back to rustc 1.35 which worked well and try to comment out the restriction with the documentation:

"To build with current Rust, you also need to remove #![deny(missing_docs)] from servo/components/style/lib.rs and servo/components/style_traits/lib.rs."
