I installed rustc and followed the README and ran:

Luckily it does compile down to a 7MiB binary. Of course even that is
bigfor what it is, but such is the way with static Rust and Go binaries.
I did not have a new enough version of rustc (or
something or
another).
Yeah you don't usually get far trying to use the rust toolchain that is
packaged in distros as slow to update as Debian. Could probably just
type "rustup" to get a newer rust dev environment installed just for
your user. Even that might say it is too old and urge you to get a newer
one from <https://rustup.rs/> though.
Thanks,
Andy
