+From 473d78fb70c4ee6adb5e3596d699cf7b5a95f028 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
+From: "Richard W.M. Jones" <rjones@redhat.com>

+Subject: [PATCH] generator: Handle ./configure --disable-rust
+
+If this option is used, then "@RUSTFMT@" is expanded to "" (not "no").
+Let's change the Config.rustfmt value to be an option type, while also
+fixing this problem.
+
+Fixes: commit b2511d640bc12b0116e6c013a17aefb4e772a058
