AFAIK Effraim and me tried to make cargo pick up artifacts build in 
another package. I gave somewhen: cargo did not pick up the artifacts, 
due to much „magic“ which I was unable to understand and work around.

One of the topics here are „features“ (like compile-time options), 
timestamps, exact absolute pathname, etc. All of this seems to go into 
some hash, which will determine which files will be rebuild. If anybody 
is interested, I could share the code of my last try. (Maybe the road to 
go would be to make cargo less strict here. But this requires 
understanding rust code and cargo.)
