On the topic of -Z build-std, I have been working on [1] which integrates the building of core, alloc, etc. in Kbuild instead of using build-std. In the end, it turned out to be easier than I expected, which was a pleasure. While the particular build steps may not always remain the same (perhaps due to change of editions, splits into smaller crates, etc.), I think it is a good idea, nevertheless, to keep the building of these few critical crates as simple as reasonably possible for projects that don't use Cargo -- even if build-std stabilizes, starts getting used by rustbuild itself, etc. [1] https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux/pull/52 Cheers, Miguel
