Hm, OK, the breakage might then be non-universal.  Adam reported
the following:

   I tried the package on macOS 12, but building fails. Then I
   tried again with (external) LLVM 13 and it builds correctly. My
   guess is, with 'rust-llvm' option turned off, Rust requires
   LLVM 13 for all architectures.

So ... is this a problem only on macOS 12?

Thanks, it's appreciated.
