This is also happening to me on macOS.

[DorianListens]

Interestingly, I can clone the rustfmt repo, and use cargo install --path ., and it compiles + runs just fine.

[CAD97]

That would be because rustfmt-nightly v0.2.17 was just published which fixes this and compiles on the 2017-12-01 nightly. #2218
