<a id="1.76.0-Compatibility-Notes"></a>
Compatibility Notes
-------------------
- [Add allow-by-default lint for unit bindings](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/112380/)
This is expected to be upgraded to a warning by default in a future Rust
release. Some macros emit bindings with type `()` with user-provided spans,
which means that this lint will warn for user code.
- [Remove x86_64-sun-solaris target.](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/118091/)
- [Remove asmjs-unknown-emscripten target](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/117338/)
- [Report errors in jobserver inherited through environment variables](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/113730/)
This [may warn](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/120515) on benign problems too.
- [Update the minimum external LLVM to 16.](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/117947/)
- [Improve `print_tts`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/114571/)
This change can break some naive manual parsing of token trees in proc macro
code which expect a particular structure after `.to_string()`, rather than just arbitrary Rust code.
- [Make `IMPLIED_BOUNDS_ENTAILMENT` into a hard error from a lint](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/117984/)
- [Vec's allocation behavior was changed when collecting some iterators](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/110353)
Allocation behavior is currently not specified, nevertheless changes can be surprising.
See [`impl FromIterator for Vec`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/std/vec/struct.Vec.html#impl-FromIterator%3CT%3E-for-Vec%3CT%3E)
for more details.
- [Properly reject `default` on free const items](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/117818/)
