+Subject: [PATCH] Bug 1338655 - Don't try to build mp4parse bindings. r=froydnj
+
+We use the cheddar crate to generate a C header file
+for our mp4parse_capi wrapper crate. Currently we
+do this at code check-in time via update-rust.sh.
+
+Cargo 0.18 and later will try to execute a build.rs
+file in the crate source tree regardless of whether
+it's specified in Cargo.toml so patching out that
+line just results in 'crate cheddar not found'.
+
+This change restores the old behaviour by substituting
+a 'build = false' line instead.
+
+We do have syntex vendored, but we don't currently build
+it by default, so I prefer this solution to just vendoring
+cheddar and generating the header at build time. The syntex
+crate is quite large and adds significantly to our compile
+time.
