That one was already reported to the tracker :)

https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/32670

(To be clear, I’m not saying that there’s no issues that aren’t in the tracker yet. But there are a bunch of them that are. More will absolutely be found as time goes on, that’s just how these things are.)
