The full paragraph [1] is
"Distributing a modified version of the Rust programming language or
the Cargo package manager and calling it Rust or Cargo requires
explicit, written permission from the Rust core team. We will usually
allow these uses as long as the modifications are (1) relatively small
and (2) very clearly communicated to end-users."

By only providing half of that quote in your bug report, I think
you're missing important context.

I think that would probably be easy enough to comply with. I also
think that is fairly in line with trademark policies in general. If
someone significantly modifies Debian, I believe the Debian Project
would insist that they use a different name for their product despite
the DFSG and despite that Debian is free and open source.

For instance, here is an excerpt without context from Debian's policy:
"You cannot use Debian trademarks in a company or organization name or
as the name of a product or service."
