  Just wait until we get IronRust through a clr rustc backend :)

      This is different. This is a backend for rustc that emits CLR instead of LLVM IR. Iron* were full .NET implementation of those runtimes. It had things like using .Net (C#) types to implement Iron* types (e.g. implement ruby's Hash with C#'s Dictionary). This is actually why none of these Iron* things took off: they were often slower than official implementations.
