    That's why I started https://github.com/mimoo/cargo-dephell and https://github.com/diem/whackadep btw, to try to get a sense of the risk in our Rust dependencies. The second one is a web UI that can update periodically and shows you what's up with your dependencies. If there's a new update, it'll tell you if it affected a `build.rs` file (which triggers a warning). I wanted to add more rules, like the ones mentioned in the article, but never had the time to do it.
