[Pkg-rust-maintainers] Bug#1018745: rust-rend 0.3.6-1 FTBFS on riscv64

[Blair Noctis]

Source: rust-rend
Version: 0.3.6-1
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs
Justification: fails to build from source
X-Debbugs-Cc: n at sail.ng

Dear Maintainer,

rust-rend 0.3.6 currently has wrong behavior for the char type on riscv64.

It is due to incorrect handling in the core library, specifically
`core::char::from_u32_unchecked()`. The rend library author has brought up
a workaround [1].
