Description

If I download Rust using:

x86_64-pc-windows-gnu.tar.gz

from here:

https://forge.rust-lang.org/other-installation-methods#standalone-installers

it seems the compiler cant actually compile anything:

$ cat aaaaa.rs
fn main() {
   println!("bbbbb ccccc");
}

$ rustc aaaaa.rs
error[E0463]: can't find crate for `std`
