+You create an inference context by doing something like
 the following:
 
 ```rust,ignore
-tcx.infer_ctxt().enter(|infcx| {

-Within the closure,
-`infcx` has the type `InferCtxt<'a, 'tcx>` for some fresh `'a`,

+`infcx` has the type `InferCtxt<'tcx>`, the same `'tcx` lifetime as on

 The `tcx.infer_ctxt` method actually returns a builder, which means
 there are some kinds of configuration you can do before the `infcx` is
