Not even remotely as difficult as Swift. Rust can call into C at any time. It is ABI compatible and has no VM

The same is true of Swift, and Swift can also call into C whenever it likes. The difference is that Swift can do the same for Objective-C at full fidelity, including support the full Objective-C feature set (ARC, arbitrary selectors, interfaces, properties, you name it).
