This tracks the progress on https://github.com/rust-lang/libs-team/issues/272. That issue says that #105572 will cause `rustc-serialize` to stop building; it seems like a semver-compatible update was released to avoid that, so currently that crate can still be used on stable. Since Rust 1.79, the future compatibility report shows this as a warning (even for dependencies). Implementation: - https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/116016 - https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/134272
