Hi Stewart,

If you go to
http://hydra.nixos.org/job/nixos/release-16.03/nixpkgs.rustUnstable.rustc.x86_64-linux/latest/eval#tabs-inputs,
you can see the nixpkgs revision of the latest successful build of
rustUnstable. If you ensure that your nixpkgs is not later then that,
you should always get binaries. If you don't, please report back with
your nixpkgs.config.
