Hi Michael,

I just found this section on the rust site that suggests a build from source can be done, if my interpretation is correct.

https://forge.rust-lang.org/infra/other-installation-methods.html#source-code

If this is really being able to build the rust toolchain from scratch via a source build then I could give that a try.

What are the changes that you mentioned needed to be made to make rust build ruby for non x86_64 architectures?

Regards,

Adolf.
