[$] Python cryptography, Rust, and Gentoo

There is always a certain amount of tension between the goals of thoseusing older, less-popular architectures and the goals of projects targetingmore mainstream users and systems. In many ways, our community has beenspoiled by the number of architectures supported by GCC, but a lot of newsoftware is not being written in C-and existing software is migrating awayfrom it. The Rust language isoften the choice these days for both new and existing code bases, but it isbuilt with LLVM, which supports fewer architectures than GCCsupports-and Linux runs on. So the question that arises is how much these older, non-Rustyarchitectures should be able to hold back future development; the answer,in several places now, has been "not much".
