No idea; the rust build process in general seems kinda touchy (and
amazingly slow unless you run things with quite a few concurrent
make jobs). In general, I've tried to stay away from it. :)

However, https://docs.rs/curl/0.4.38/curl/ says "Currently this
crate will build libcurl from source if one is not already detected
on the system." which probably has something to do with it (which
I suppose raises questions about what exactly options.mk is doing
or not; I wonder if nia has any input.)
