I don't think architecture support is a problem.
This might have been an issue when Rust was relatively new, but the
list of supported targets is pretty big now:
https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/rustc/platform-support.html

For example, RISC-V (riscv64gc-unknown-linux-gnu) is supported by the
Rust toolchain at the same level (Tier 2) as three other architectures
we have (armv7hl / armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabihf, ppc64le /
powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu, s390x / s390x-unknown-linux-gnu). Only
x86 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu / i686-unknown-linux-gnu) and aarch64
(aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu) have better support (Tier 1).
