Thanks for digging into this, great to see more interest in bringing rust into the ecosystem. There has been some previous efforts[1] which are in differing levels of readiness.

You may wish to look into these, as I believe there is some overlap between the patch sets. I linked the latest, but there are more to be found too.

Yeah, probably best to get those merged first, I'll rebase this after,
I was mostly testing to see if just using env variables instead of a
cargo config file was a viable approach for configuring cargo
properly. From my understanding cargo can generally be configured with
env variables alone.

The advantage of env variables is that they take precedence over config
files.  I had some trouble with a config file in my home directory that
specified a different linker, and was found before the buildroot one.

I have re-submitted a new version of the Cargo package infrastructure,
which I had submitted a long time ago. I think it's very close to what
you have done, but also supports vendoring thanks to additional logic,
also shared with the Go package infrastructure.

Could you have a look at the series I just posted?

Thanks!

Thomas
