I hope this does not start a war.. The problem with Rust is, it's only
guaranteed to work on i686 and x86_64.

Trying to compile Rust programs on armel, armhf, aarch64 and PowerPC
has been excruciatingly painful. The tool cannot compile its own
cargo's on those platforms. I gave up trying to use Rust on anything
but x86_64.

Rust should certainly be able to compile its own Cargo, so this is an
outright bug.  Please report it.  If the instructions are confusing
enough that it is easy to make a mistake, that’s a bug in the
documentation.
