Yes, this is the way the compiler *should* be producing libraries by 
default. Even with the recent changes to "emitting proper library names" 
(eg. bug #744) I don't think we're quite doing it right yet. Better though!

And I *think* it was probably safe to keep "std" as "std", not 
"ruststd", since there's unlikely to be a collision with any normal 
C-ABI stuff on libstd-<hash>-0.1.so

This is an excellent point. I will file a bug to implement library naming as 
designed and revert back to the name-based crate search.
