Research direction

Start with the reduced Rust reproducer and command in the issue, then inspect expand_message in gcc/rust/rust-diagnostics.cc around lines 125-137. Trace the vasprintf failure and the diagnostic path shown in the backtrace. Done means the reproducer no longer triggers an internal compiler error in expand_message and reports the underlying failure appropriately.
