 Replying to [comment:14 alexcrichton]:
 > Oh dear that is indeed worrisome! The only difference between nightly
 and stable builds is `--release-channel` passed to `./configure` so you
 should already be emulating our stable builds. It looks like you're cross-
 compiling rustc from Linux though? For us we compile natively on OSX and I
 wonder if that causes differences?

 I avoided that by taking the respective nightly sources and compiled them
 as we compile the stable compiler.

 So, the plan right now is to take the nightly sources that are closest to
 1.26.1 and remove parts of the diff until I find the problem.
