This is intended to be a "tracking issue" for anything related to enabling Polonius Alpha on nightly ahead of stabilization.
If you encounter an issue (a bug, unsoundness, or significant performance regression) related to the borrow checker while Polonius Alpha is enabled, please feel free to post here. Issues requiring longer discussion can also be discussed on Zulip.
