I compiled Rust from sources with alternative compiler
Mrustc (C++) without any binary blobs.
As you may know Rust compiler distributed as Rust sources
meant to be build by older "snapshot" of itself. Which
violate open source paradigm.
I was able to solve this in Gentoo GNU/Linux OS with
reproducible way. First I compile Rust 1.74 version and
then in chain I compile all versions to 1.84.
All steps took approximately 8 hours, but after it is fast
to compile new version, without blobs.
