Rust feature staging and you

Recently I've been overhauling the mechanisms for introducing unstable features to both the Rust language and libraries. Part of that work landed for the 1.0.0-alpha release when we started producing warnings about using unstable library APIs, which I'm sure you noticed. Now the transition to the system described in [RFC 507][rfc-507] is nearing completion, so it's time to remind everybody what's happening and how to cope with it.

How to install PhantomJS on Ubuntu
