> Basic stuff like named return values no longer work. If Rust hypothetically wanted to add named return values, I think the way they'd do it is have the compiler check that all codepaths through the function initialize the returns. In general rustc is happy to let you declare uninitialized variables, and even partially initialize them field-by-field, as long as it can prove to itself that everything's fully initialized by the time you read it.
