async: hidden type for impl Trait captures lifetime that does not appear in bounds

use std::future::Future;

async fn enter<'a, F, R>(mut callback: F)

    F: FnMut(&'a mut i32) -> R,

I think this is a bug? The RFC says

All of the input lifetimes to this function are captured in the future returned by the async function

so I'd expect the function to return impl Future<...> + 'a.

lifetime 'a is not needed here cc https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/2394-async_await.md#lifetime-capture-in-the-anonymous-future

@csmoe what do you mean "not needed"? You changed the signature of the function.

@jethrogb This compiles for me on on playground.

[jethrogb]

@Matthias247 that's strange. The playground appears broken currently, but when I compile that locally with the latest nightly I still get the original error.

Yes, this is a bug I'm currently working on fixing.

Marking this as blocking as it is part of the lifetime refactoring work that @cramertj has already started doing and should be addressed by that (as discussed here).
