That's also true for a huge proportion of the issues that get caught
with an allmodconfig, and allnoconfig is not exactly a realistic
configuration either.  It's not just runtime issues, it's also issues
that come up in people's coverage tests.  TBH the rust stuff originally
got turned on because I ran the allmodconfig on a machine that happened
to have a usable rustc installed, I was intending to enable it at some
point anyway.
