Unexpected trait bound not satisfied related to std::io::Write

[sorairolake]

When I tried to build the documentation for zip crate v1.3.0 (cargo doc), it failed with unexpected errors (see zopfli-rs/zopfli#42). There seems to be no problem up to Rust 1.74.0, but the error occurs with Rust 1.75.0 or later.

Code

I tried this code:

https://github.com/zopfli-rs/zopfli/blob/5cea5a62d791e16440e8556feb663cffd3e888cf/src/deflate.rs#L23-L156
https://github.com/zopfli-rs/zopfli/blob/5cea5a62d791e16440e8556feb663cffd3e888cf/src/gzip.rs#L3-L97
https://github.com/zopfli-rs/zopfli/blob/5cea5a62d791e16440e8556feb663cffd3e888cf/src/zlib.rs#L3-L90

I expected to see this happen: Successfully build the documentation.

Instead, this happened:

The trait std::io::Write seems to be implemented for deflate::DeflateEncoder<W>, so I think it satisfies the trait bound.

Version it worked on

The error looks correct to me. Your crate contains this cfg(doc):

#[cfg(all(not(doc), feature = "std"))]
use std::io::{Error, Write};

#[cfg(any(doc, not(feature = "std")))]
pub use io::{Error, ErrorKind, Write};

So when you run cargo doc, DeflateEncoder actually implements your own copy of the Write trait, rather than the one from the standard library, but std::io::BufWriter requires the one from the standard library.

Prior to 1.75.0, this code was incorrectly accepted by rustdoc due to a bug, which got fixed in #117450.
