> Rust has only one real compiler

I never understood why it is a problem for some people. Single compiler means more people working on it instead of recreating same work multiple times (modules and coroutines are still not fully supported across all 3 biggest compilers).

What they're really saying is, "I can't build it with GCC", but that would sound too evangelical. Why they need GCC is another question.

Note to whoever I've angered: Please, don't reply with your reasoning why you need GCC. I don't care about your reasoning and that GCC unlike LLVM supports this platform that only used on calculators made by defunct company and sold whole 3 of them.
