Since Rust 1.67.0, the Rust compiler groups fields in a struct if it improves alignment. See rust-lang/rust#102750 for details. Prior to that change, in some cases
repr(Rust)
andrepr(C)
structs had the same memory layout, which now differs, breaking C<=>Rust interfacing.We've had a few instances in the code where we (implicitly) relied on the memory layout being equivalent to
repr(C)
, which stopped some of the browser functions from working if compiled with a newer Rust version.
