Description

So in both the examples, -Zbuild-std=core is being passed from .cargo/config.toml. My question is how does that work with the boot/simple_bootsub crates that need std as well?

Or does the build options only apply to the main crate and not the boot sub crates as well?

Research direction

Start by inspecting .cargo/config.toml and the boot/simple_boot subcrates to trace where -Zbuild-std=core is applied. Confirm whether the option reaches those subcrates, then make the examples or documentation explicitly explain its scope and expected std behavior.
