Golang doesn't dynamically link to libc by default on Linux either - it calls the Linux kernel ABI directly (since that ABI is stable). The main upshot of this is that you don't have to worry about the classic glibc version bingo by default, while with Rust you have to go through some extra steps to avoid that.
