I've updated the Rust programming language on Athena to 1.0 alpha.From
my message to users:

Rust on Athena has been updated to version 1.0 alpha (1/18/15 nightly). 
This is a significant update, with syntactical changes to the language.
release notes are at 
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/wiki/Doc-detailed-release-notes

To use the rustc compiler to compile a source file myfile.rs:

       	 add rust-lang
         rustc myfile.rs

To run the prior 0.11 release for a limited time, add a "-ver 0.11"
command line option to Rust commands, i.e.:

	 add rust-lang
	 rustc -ver 0.11 myfile.rs

See http://web.mit.edu/rust-lang_v1.0al/README.athena for instructions
and links to documentation. Local release notes are at
http://web.mit.edu/rust-lang_v1.0al/RELEASES.md
