Cargo panics when using -Z rustdoc-scrape-examples=examples

[AaronErhardt]

Problem

Cargo (nightly) panics when I use -Z rustdoc-scrape-examples=examples. This issue first appeared yesterday in the documentation workflow of Relm4 without any changes to the CI configuration, so this must be related to a recent change in cargo or rustc.

Steps

1. Clone Relm4
2. Run cargo +nightly doc -Z rustdoc-scrape-examples=examples (you might need to have gtk4 installed)

Possible Solution(s)

No response

Notes

Backtrace
