Today when you install Rust by default you get duplicate sets of libraries at $sysroot/lib and $sysroot/lib/rustlib/$host/lib, for example:

$ find . -name libproc_macro-* | xargs shasum
2453aab91f0cd5e77b9f514d5df15be7b4ec965e  ./lib/libproc_macro-2641322a715c6559.dylib
2453aab91f0cd5e77b9f514d5df15be7b4ec965e  ./lib/rustlib/x86_64-apple-darwin/lib/libproc_macro-2641322a715c6559.dylib

We should avoid duplicating these libraries! Unfortunately I'm not sure of the best method of doing so.

Moving to an on disk scheme that doesn't have duplicate paths to the bins seems fairly challenging, but I can easily imagine installers being smartened to remove the duplication as best they can.
