The current behavior is clearly documented in the Rust Reference[1]: >The following language level features cannot be used in the safe subset of Rust: > Dereferencing a raw pointer. > Reading or writing a mutable or external static variable. > Accessing a field of a union, other than to assign to it. > Calling an unsafe function (including an intrinsic or foreign function). > Implementing an unsafe trait. It also calls out the behavior in noted in this specific post in "Behavior not considered unsafe"[2]: > Exposing randomized base addresses through pointer leaks [1]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/unsafety.html https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/unsafety.html [2]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/behavior-not-considered-unsafe.html https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/behavior-not-considered-...
