I recognize that this is an aberration. That was the point, after all.

Generally, though, I think my point about LLVM in general still stands.
What makes Rust interesting to me as an outside observer (I'm a
sysadmin, not a programmer) is that Rust performance is competitive
with C performance while producing much safer binaries. More Rust means
less stress for me.
