As the author of this patch, actually I have the same concern. I started to translate base85 as baby steps to find a way of integrating rust and cpython, on my side, Today I modify setup.py, policy.py and makefile to run hg's test suit with the new base85. For myself, it is only proof of concept. Maybe I should take another way: translate more python modules into CFFI-style, and let CFFI call rust implementation. And gradually change more implementations of python modules with corresponding cffi-style, while keep the python interface the same. My own hope is the rust routines will be able to call each other and eventually run some __basic__ tasks without calling python part. And the rust still lazily provides info to python interface for extensions etc. I am exploring this way now, and hope the findings will be useful for community to make decision. Thank you all for the comments!
