Hi gabriele,
after reading Wayne's replies, it turns out I had apparently botched
my attempts to download the source from the static site, so I had
gone to github and got what turned out to be much smaller tarballs
(called rust-1.19.0.tar.gz), presumably those are intended for a
different use, such as building the next version from an installed
previous version.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Doesn't that use the already-installed version of the previous rust
release, instead of downloading stage0 binaries ?

I now think the release tarballs are not intended for my use case
(bootstrap with no previous rust), it might be there is some
different was to get the missing parts, or a different way of
building from those tarballs.
