It seems like this won't be forgotten about but if there is not already
an issue open for this somewhere, it would be good to have one, since we
obviously want this for both C and Rust code.
As a general meta comment not directed at anyone in particualr, I think
these 'depends on !' should all have some sort of comment or description
as to why they are disabled. I can infer from most of them but it would
still be good to be explicit, especially since someone might want to
work on fixing the ones that are due to missing support and such.
