+	# Unfortunately, Cargo is *really* bad at handling flags. In short, it uses
+	# the first of the RUSTFLAGS env var, any target-specific config, and then
+	# any generic [build] config. It can merge within the latter two types from
+	# different sources, but it will not merge across these different types, so
+	# if a project sets flags under [target.'cfg(all())'], it will override any
+	# flags we set under [build] and vice-versa.
+	#
+	# It has been common for users and ebuilds to set RUSTFLAGS, which would
+	# have overridden whatever a project sets anyway, so the least-worst option
+	# is to include those RUSTFLAGS in target-specific config here, which will
+	# merge with any the project sets. Only flags in generic [build] config set
+	# by the project will be lost, and ebuilds will need to add those to
+	# RUSTFLAGS themselves if they are important.
+	#
+	# We could potentially inspect a project's generic [build] config and
+	# reapply those flags ourselves, but that would require a proper toml parser
+	# like tomlq, it might lead to confusion where projects also have
+	# target-specific config, and converting arrays to strings may not work
+	# well. Nightly features to inspect the config might help here in future.

+	# As of Rust 1.80, it is not possible to set separate flags for the build
