    AFAIK, there are no blockers really, it's just that Rust does not have its own linker, it delegates linkage to the system linker depending on the target. <https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/cross-compilation.html?hi...>

    You can specify your own linker if you want, mold is a very popular one, and cargo-zigbuild does the same behind the scenes with zig cc as the linker.

    I did something similar a couple of months ago (or a year ago? I don't remember exactly). I managed to cross-compile to windows-msvc on Linux using Wine, there's a project that provides the scripts to make this easier, including the linker wrapper: <https://github.com/est31/msvc-wine-rust>. It was just for fun because Rust can already target windows-gnu and it'll use mingw64 linker.

    Rust's approach to things is normally to provide the basic foundation and let the community build on top of it. I personally like this approach, but it also has this downside of people not knowing they may need an external/community built tool to accomplish what they want.

    That's pretty neat! Generally though, I advise staying away from the official installer, it puts a lot of stuff onto the hard disk, not sure what, but suddenly a lot of free space is gone. If you download the components manually and install them manually, you reach a way smaller footprint. I've done that thing 5 years ago but not maintained it since as I don't need it any more, but: https://github.com/est31/msvc-wine-rust
