Based on these discussions we have started prototyping a procedurally-generated native rust seL4 library built from a complete seL4 IDL specification.
Once we have built this out we intend to share our learnings and continue to advocate for changes to seL4 and/or upstream work that improves the experience for everyone building their own language bindings or dynamic systems on seL4.
Is there any particular reason why you didn't just port your bindings to feL4? It does use the C bindings underneath (through bindgen), but I don't think that's a big problem, as they don't have much room for memory bugs (and UX/RT is not meant to be a "Rust OS" like Redox and Robigalia; it will just be an OS that has a lot of subsystems written in Rust, but there will still be a lot of third-party C code). It was relatively easy for me to port your old bindings and allocators to my fork of feL4.
Here is the UX/RT subproject with the bindings and allocators (rust-bitmap, rust-sel4, and sel4-alloc are forked from Robigalia; the rest is from feL4 except for sel4-slabmalloc): https://gitlab.com/uxrt/core-supervisor/fel4/
