Sean, in bug #1017890 you wrote that simply using "a subset of the
preferred form for modification", or in clearer words "information that
was directly extracted from the preferred form of modification" would
be acceptable.

In that case we could go here with shipping the .gir XML files with the
Rust source packages plus shipping some compatible version of the code
generator in the archive.

If that is the ftp-master consensus then we would've found a way
forward here. Can you confirm that?


In addition this would mean that gtk-sharp2 is OK too, while vala would
also have to ship the .gir files in addition.
