It's not always possible, but on systems where it is, there's some ability to do so, see https://github.com/japaric/steed

Thanks Steve.

Doesn't linking to it make a Rust program "unsafe", in the Rust sense? Or my understanding is probably not correct.

Using unsafe inside of safe is totally fine. See https://doc.rust-lang.org/nomicon/safe-unsafe-meaning.html for more.

Cheers, thanks.
