I think this is starting to wander rather far afield from where this thread started...

But anyways, at least from a quick glance those would at the very least seem to run into codys' unintentional bug vs. intentional behavior distinction. The bugs you linked are... well... bugs that the Rust devs fully intend to fix regardless of whether any in-the-wild exploits ever arise. The Go data race issue, on the other hand, is an intentional implementation decision and the devs have not indicated any interest in fixing it so far.

Neither set of issues is apposite to MemorySafety.org. The whole thing is just a dumb language war spat.
