They do provide a mechanism to do that, by setting the environment variable
JEMALLOC_OVERRIDE to the path to a static or shared library. However, this
isn’t quite suitable for our needs, because (1) we would have to make sure
every package that directly or indirectly depended on this one defined that
environment variable, which is impractical and error-prone, and (2) we don’t
want the RPM-packaged version of this to include or support building with a
bundled jemalloc *at all*. We therefore are stuck with a downstream patch to
make sure the system jemalloc is used *unconditionally*. Pretty much every Rust
-sys package in Fedora carries a similar patch in one form or another.
