Sorry, that was mostly misguided. .Rbuildignore won't help with the
contents of the Rust vendor tarball.

1. Can you omit the .cff file from src/rust/vendor.tar.xz when building
it?

2. I think that there is --exclude in both GNU tar and BSD tar. How
about tar --exclude="*.cff" -x -f rust/vendor.tar.xz ?

3. From
<https://win-builder.r-project.org/incoming_pretest/arcgisutils_0.3.0_20240507_194020/Debian/00install.out>,
it can be seen that the "clean" target does not get called. Can you
remove the *.cff file in the same Make target?
