The documentation appears to be out of date. If I follow the steps then, to build the allocator example, I get the following error:

% cargo build --example allocator

If I try with the nightly:

Any pointers no how to see that the allocator example is able to be built? Is the documentation/example out of date?

Hmm, could you try updating this line to 0.4.0:

cortex-m-quickstart/Cargo.toml

Line 18 in be44af6

# alloc-cortex-m = "0.3.5"
