Version 1.10 of the Rust programming language is now available.

Rust 1.10 brings the -C panic=abort flag as their most-requested feature for yielding 10% smaller binaries and about 10% faster compilation time. Rust 1.10 also brings the new cdylib crate type for compiling Rust as a dynamic library to be embedded in another language. Rust 1.10 also has build system changes to allow it to be built with Rust 1.9 and that trend will continue to be supported for future releases.

Rust 1.10 also brings library improvements, Cargo changes, bug fixes, and more.

Much more information on Rust 1.10 can be found via the official announcement on Rust-Lang.org.
