For the record, Rust can also produce object files with C interfaces. Firefox is currently using this: you can, optionally, replace the MP4 parser with a Rust version, and this is done in Mozilla's official builds.
A caveat would be that Rust supports less platforms. Also, I think SIMD intrinsics and inline asm are still limited to nightly Rust.
