Anyway, the reason is that I'd have to modify both __rustc-option and rustc-option-yn to do that, and putting it here seemed more future-proof against making the same mistake in any rustc-* commands added in the future. But I realize that it's not clear-cut. I'm happy to move it if you prefer, or perhaps add a try-run-rust. Let me know what you think. > I guess it is still suspicious because the top-level Makefile > exports RUCTC_BOOTSTRAP. Moving the declaration of RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP to the top of the Makefile seems to fix it. I guess moving it is probably a better solution than adding it in scripts/Makefile.compiler. Not that I really understand why that is. The existing invocations are in scripts/Makefile.kasan which is invoked after RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP is declared. Alice
