If cve-rs exists, is safe rust safe? Can one prove that Rust code is safe only by auditing the unsafe blocks?

Every compiler has bugs.
Not what I asked
If cve-rs exists, we still say that safe Rust is safe, in the same way that we say Python is safe despite potential bugs in its interpreter or native libraries, and that Java is safe despite potential bugs in the JVM or JNI libraries, and so on.
