Use rust 1.36. rust 1.37 might also work.

Thank you FRG!
For anyone with the same issue:
I ended up installing "rustup"
Within rustup, I installed and set rustc 1.36.0 as default
Then I built the package and after quite some time (single thread as I needed
to see where it would potentially fail), I now have a working seamonkey-2.53.1
on Arch.
We are trying to get latest rust support into 2.53.2 at least for Linux.
Unfortunately rust is more or less alpha/early beta quality wrt features and
deprecation and a constantly moving target.

Rust is a pain to have as a dependancy regardless; Every distro has ist own
versions, and rustup is by no means a standard that works with every (any?)
packaging tool. Arch is fairly flexible here, but for instance Debian is a real
issue: I can not create a complete, from source rebuildable package according
to the Debian package guidelines with this thing in there...
By the way: thank you for telling me I needed rust 1.36.0, but how would I have
been able to find out myself?

In the ideal world we would have detailed build instructions available at the
website. We are trying to fix it and make the website usable again for devs.
Unfortunately with Linux every distribution is different. If you run into a
build error best to ask on irc. If no one answers check the logs later. At
least I look at them daily if something came up. The others too I think.
