Comment (by nickm):

 Small questions.  We shouldn't take any of these as blocking.
   * Have you tested this with out-of-tree builds?
   * Have you tried "make distcheck DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS='--enable-
 rust'" to make sure that make distcheck still works when building rust?
   * Do the various "make clean" targets work right?
   * What invokes clippy for us?
   * where do we check rustc/cargo version?
   * How will cross-compilation work?

 Small suggestions:
  * The "please report bugs" message .. should say "how" and "where" to
 report, and remind people not to report ancient bugs. Otherwise we'll get
 swamped with junk.
  * test_rust.sh -- should it use ls to find the list of crates, rather
 than having them hardwired?
  * Let's label the autoconf option as "experimental" in the help message.
