+The coerced type does not outlive the value being coerced to.
+
+Example of erroneous code:
+
+```compile_fail,E0476
+#![feature(coerce_unsized)]
+#![feature(unsize)]
+
+use std::marker::Unsize;
+use std::ops::CoerceUnsized;
+
+// error: lifetime of the source pointer does not outlive lifetime bound of the
+//        object type
+impl<'a, 'b, T, S> CoerceUnsized<&'a T> for &'b S where S: Unsize<T> {}
+```
+
+During a coercion, the "source pointer" (the coerced type) did not outlive the
+"object type" (value being coerced to). In the above example, `'b` is not a
+subtype of `'a`. This error can currently only be encountered with the unstable
+`CoerceUnsized` trait which allows custom coercions of unsized types behind a
+smart pointer to be implemented.
