That's the inverse of my question. If Rust is going to replace things written in C, other stuff is going to want to dynamically link to it.
A statically compiled Rust based replacement for an entire distribution isn't a realistic proposition, unless you fancy downloading a gig or two every time there's a security update and everything has to be rebuilt.
