Gaussian quadrature points are typically solved numerically. There's a good chance these ultimately came from a table.

Additionally, compile time floating-point evaluation is limited. When I looked around recently, I didn't see a rust equivalent of gcem; any kind of transcendental function evaluation (which finding Gaussian quadrature points absolutely would require) would not allow compile-time evaluation.
