I've never done anything like this before, though. I found miniupnp's attempt but apparently it never worked, and things have changed a lot since then. There's PowerPC on Linux support so Darwin support shouldn't be too hard, right?

How could one use gcc-rs or mrustc? Maybe cross compile them on x86 to powerpc, but how for a specific version of darwin? AFAIK cross compilation can only be done when you're running the same OS on different architectures?

GCC-RS cannot parse a lot of Rust just yet.
