This also reminds me that we still don't have rust for x86, armhf or
aarch64.

Jakub, do you know what the status is of bootstrapping rust for other
arches?

Do you think it is realistic to have rust available for any arch more
than x86_64 for alpine v3.7?

I think it would be nice if we could have atleast one more arch in
addition to x86_64
