The bug in question is in rust glue code that interfaces with a C library. It's not in the rust-C interface or on the C side. If you write python glue code that interfaces with numpy and there's a bug in your glue, it's a python bug not a numpy bug.

I already agreed that technically it is indeed a bug in the Rust code. I would just contest that such a bug is representative is all. People in this thread seem way too eager to extrapolate which is not intellectually curious or fair.
Nobody is extrapolating from this bug to the rest of rust. The comment I responded to initially was denying that this was a rust bug.
You and a few others don't -- I did not make that clear, apologies. It's disheartening that a good amount of others do.
