+#### This error code is internal to the compiler and will not be emitted with normal Rust code.
+
+Feature declared with conflicting stability requirements.
+
+```compile_fail,E0711
+// NOTE: this attribute is perma-unstable and should *never* be used outside of
+//       stdlib and the compiler.
+#![feature(staged_api)]
+
+#![stable(feature = "...", since = "1.0.0")]
+
+#[stable(feature = "foo", since = "1.0.0")]
+fn foo_stable_1_0_0() {}
+
+// error: feature `foo` is declared stable since 1.29.0
+#[stable(feature = "foo", since = "1.29.0")]
+fn foo_stable_1_29_0() {}
+
+// error: feature `foo` is declared unstable
+#[unstable(feature = "foo", issue = "none")]
+fn foo_unstable() {}
+```
+
+In the above example, the `foo` feature is first defined to be stable since
+1.0.0, but is then re-declared stable since 1.29.0. This discrepancy in
+versions causes an error. Furthermore, `foo` is then re-declared as unstable,
+again the conflict causes an error.
+
+This error can be fixed by splitting the feature, this allows any
+stability requirements and removes any possibility of conflict.
