The safety designed into Rust is suddenly foreign to the C family that I'm honestly not sure you can do that. Even "unsafe" Rust doesn't completely switch off the enforced safety

Yeah, to quote the manual: "[Unsafe Rust allows you to] - Dereference a raw pointer. - Call an unsafe function or method. - Access or modify a mutable static variable. - Implement an unsafe trait. - Access fields of unions. [...] The unsafe keyword only gives you access to these five features that are then not checked by the compiler for memory safety." https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch20-01-unsafe-rust.html
