Comment:

 This probably won't fix #25386, but it is a pretty good start on #24265.
 What we really need eventually is a way for the ''same'' random fuzzer
 input to be sent to both a C function and a Rust function, both of which
 are supposed to behave identically (e.g. the parsers in
 `src/or/protover.c` and `src/rust/protover/protover.rs`).
