Particularly interesting is the last one, target-cpu=native. I looked around, trying to find where that is coming from, and found that upstream's .cargo/config.toml file says this:

To ensure consistency while building on Debian infrastructure, shouldn't the Debian ecosystem ensure the tests are run for the baseline target-cpu instead of the native cpu? With native we can get the build to fail on some buildds and some user systems while it succeeds on others. The build is supposed to build for the baseline anyways, so running tests for higher than baseline doesn't add much for Debian I'd say (except for reporting bugs upstream, but that feels like whack-a-mole for cases like this).

Disclaimer (don't take me too serious here): as a maintainer of ci.d.n I hate flaky tests, particularly if they are conditional on the hardware.
