I'm curious, but unable to ascertain, does the same problem exist in the original Zig code? Is this an issue introduced by the translation to Rust? Because if it is a problem that can be replicated in both code bases, it seems a point in Rust's favor, that the issue is easily identifiable with tools that exist in its ecosystem.

I'm also curious about that. One thing to keep in mind: the invariants you have to uphold in unsafe blocks are quite stringent. I expect that in some instances the Rust code has new UB due to this.
