Yeah I'd imagined this could happen. Currently d/rules just copies 
rust/{*.rmeta,*.so} into the destination directory. My guess was that in 
the future they could be placed in subdirectories of rust/, but on a 
second thought I think as subsystems accept Rust they could be located 
kind of anywhere in the build directory? If this is the case, then I 
think hardcoding can hardly be avoided. One will just have to change the 
hardcoded paths as needed (not ideal, but oh, well; also, absolutely not 
unheard of :-)). I say this mostly because of the *.so files: assuming 
that all *.rmeta files must be installed probably is a good enough 
assumption, but the same is not true for *.so files.

On the other hand, one could maybe use something like `objdump -T 
whatever.so | grep rustc_proc_macro_decls` to discover if a .so file is 
a rust proc macro?
