Agreed.  If there is a need for newer public rust version, please go
through the maintainers' note above the 'rust' variable:

;;; Note: Only the latest versions of Rust are supported and tested.  The
;;; intermediate rusts are built for bootstrapping purposes and should not
;;; be relied upon.  This is to ease maintenance and reduce the time
;;; required to build the full Rust bootstrap chain.
;;;
;;; Here we take the latest included Rust, make it public, and re-enable tests
;;; and extra components such as rustfmt.

Usually the whole collection keeps building with the latest rust version
as it's backward compatible, I think, so it's not as much work as it may
look like.

OK to close?
