In my experiments, it looks like the rust compiler actually_does_ support static libraries, though perhaps cargo doesn't.
AFAIU this assumption is correct.
I invite you to take a look at<https://notabug.org/maximed/cargoless-rust-experiments>. It contains a minimal rust library (libhello) and a minimal 'hello world'-style application that uses 'libhello'.
Impressive!
As a next step, maybe I could try writing a Guix package definition for libhello and hello-oxygen, gradually making things more complicated (macros, transitive dependencies, some non-toy Rust dependencies, a Guix build system ...)?
Here is my challenge :-) <https://gitlab.com/sequoia-pgp/sequoia/-/blob/main/openpgp/Cargo.toml>: different dependencies per feature, os, target-arch and target-os as well as passing on features to dependencies.
