I'd like to concur. I've used the Rust 0.10 compiler and the only bug I encountered was that generating debug binaries was somehow broken. Apart from that, it was one of the smoothest experiences ever and the error messages are amazing.

Rust error messages are perhaps the best thing about the compiler. For me, it's a new experience altogether. Instead of having to Google obscure error messages, Rust error messages actually tell me how to solve the problem!
