False positive: const_static_lifetime associated constants

[alexheretic]

Clippy and rustc don't seem to agree when it comes to declaring static associated constant lifetimes.

trait Foo {
    const BAR: &'static str = "bar";
}

clippy

warning: Constants have by default a `'static` lifetime
 --> src/main.rs:5:17
  |
5 |     const BAR: &'static str = "bar";
  |                -^^^^^^^---- help: consider removing `'static`: `&str`

rustc

error[E0106]: missing lifetime specifier
 --> src/main.rs:5:16

5 |     const BAR: &str = "bar";
  |                ^ expected lifetime parameter

This should have been fixed in #2443. Have you tried to update clippy recently?

Thanks, this indeed does not occur on current master
