The recent addition of config.storage and config.storage.staging means that before drupal_container() can be called the site's settings.php needs to be read.

The patch attached ensures that drush only uses the t() function when drupal_container() is safe to call.

Currently just typing drush on the CLI in a drupal 8 root directory at HEAD generates the following error:

I like the $output approach.
Works as expected.

This reliance on drupal_container() is getting uglier. We already "fixed" this once.

Did this get fixed? I'm getting this error with a fresh Drupal 8.x and Devel 8.x-1.x.

Are you sure it's this error... or is it the new one :) that I'm getting see #1801082: drupal_flush_all_caches() assumes a web request - "The service definition "router.builder" does not exist. "

Thanks for the swift reply, Alex.

It looks like this error. Here's what it spews:

Ok, I realised I was using an old drush... d'oh.
