in Cargo.toml from nettle-sys 2.0.5, we see:

version = "0.2.9"
But debcargo 2.4.4 translates that into actual Build-Depends: and
Depends: fields, despite the target environment not being the MSVC
compiler. It generates:

So, i'll probably patch this out of the upstream sources for now, but
debcargo should have handled this more cleanly.

Version: 2.8.4-1
debcargo.toml can now contain `filter_targets` which allows to
automatically generate a patch to remove all dependencies
conditionalized with `target.cfg`. It is opt-in at the moment and allows
to keep everything mapping to Debian architectures (including ports)
and/or WASM. I plan to switch the default at a later point to make it
opt-out.
