For this project, the advantage to rewriting strlen in Rust is for my learning and to test my Frankenstein-ian link-time munging, not because Rust is better at unsafely dereferencing random pointers (C's got that pretty well covered). I do hope to soon move on to the more meaty bits and show ways in which Rust can improve safety, but I wanted to get my initial thoughts and results written down so I could reference back to the post later. Frankly did not expect to see it here :).
