<p dir="auto">As an interim step, the compiler should continue to accept <code class="notranslate">extern crate "foo-bar" as ...</code> both in terms of quotes and in terms of matching the identifier <code class="notranslate">foo_bar</code> as well. This should help reduce the breakage a little.</p>

<p dir="auto">We recently made most, but not all RNGs clonable. ISTM that the use cases for this are quite limited, and it creates a big opportunity for making mistakes by duplicating random numbers in scenarios where that could be a security risk (imagine accidentally deriving clone on a secure rng).</p>
