error: explicit lifetime bound required

[edubkendo]

Can't get it to build currently using rust nightly. Apparently there was a new type inference scheme merged about 8 hours ago, lol. I tried taking a look but I really don't know much rust yet, I've been distracted lately with Elixir. Was trying to figure out why atom-racer wasn't working for user's having issues and wanted to update to the latest racer to see what the problem was. Tried compiling with rust-0.11 but that didn't work out either. Thanks in advance.

Quick fix:

1. Change the definition of lazyit to

    pub fn lazyit<'a,T,I:Iterator<T>>(p: proc(): 'a -> I) -> iter::FlatMap<'static,proc():'a -> I,option::Item<proc():'a -> I>,I> {
        return Some(p).move_iter().flat_map(|p| p());
    }

2. Change the definition of BoxIter to

pub struct BoxIter<'a, T> {
    iter: Box<Iterator<T> + 'a>
}

3. Adjust the uses of BoxIter (BoxIter<T> -> BoxIter<'a, T>, etc)
