 Replying to [comment:3 Sebastian]:
 > Reason this is invalid: We're matching Tor's C code behaviour here,
 which always includes debug symbols, even in releases.

 That makes sense to try to match the C behaviour. Although, I think
 building Rust code in debug mode isn't really comparable to a C binary
 with debugging symbols… there's extra stuff going on there (like the over
 /under-flow checks), and it's not like we can just run strip on it to make
 it what it would've been without debugging enabled. It's more like
 building a C binary with UBSan and whatever other sanitisers enabled,
 which IIRC we don't do (`--enable-expensive-hardening` is off by default).
