Isn‘t mrustc already able to compile rustc?

  Yes.

    Oh that's impressive. I didn't know it was that far along.

      It managed to do it for the first time Dec 24 2017 https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/7lu6di/mrustc_alternate_rust_compiler_in_c_now_broken/ https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/7lu6di/mrustc_alterna... > It's managed to build rustc from a source tarball, and use that rustc as stage0 for a full bootstrap pass. Even better, from my two full attempts, the resultant stage3 files have been binary identical to the same source archive built with the downloaded stage0.
