       @foone That's assuming they could fit Rust's .text section into 640kB :'D.(Honestly I wonder how they got C++ to fit, even pre-C++98. I guess "with a lot of patience. And hacks.")

       @foone You probably can. BGI is a statically linked library with a C API. Rust supports both of those things out of the box.
