>tool that can translate memory-safe Rust code into memory-unsafe C code Fwiw, there're two such ongoing efforts. One[1] being an, written in C++, alternative Rust compiler that emits C (aka, in project's words, high-level assembly), the other[2] being a Rust compiler backend/plugin (as an extra goal to its initial being to compile Rust to CLR asm). Last one apparently is[3] quite modular and could be adapted for other targets too. Other options are continuing/improve GCC front-end for Rust and a recent attempt to make a Rust compiler in C[4] that compiles to QBE IR which can then be compiled with QBE/cc.
