Why building rust code in mc at all ?
Do you wanna rewrite mc in rust ? Then you'd better start completely
afresh. (and give it a different name).
He did give it a different (working) name - mc-rs - he's published his
experiment on his own GitHub account and has invited anyone who is
interested to contribute. All fine by me...
Since the original post contained questions about compiler warnings
pertaining to the mc source code, I have forwarded it to this list, where
it was quickly and helpfully answered.
If you have important opinions to share on Rust, please find a different
forum for this though. But before you do, I'd urge you to rethink whether
this is necessary in the first place...
Vitold is like anyone else entitled to use his time however he wants, and
if he set out to rewrite mc in Rust, it's up to him to decide whether he
should do it incrementally or by starting from scratch.
