In fact, each version of rustc names libraries it compiles with a specific hash (first N bytes of md5 hash of version IIRC) that way it will never try to link to a different version. None of the non-binary crates are built with the idea of multiple consumers. Do you want to have 100500 version of the same library and dynamically link them?"
