Our short term plan for getting a consensus compatible zcash-script implementation is to depend on the implementation currently used in zcash (#622). However, long term we would like to avoid depending on c++ code as much as possible. Additionally, the c++ build system may impose new restrictions on what platforms we can support.

To defend against these issues we should also create a rust reimplementation of zcashconsensus. We will still prefer to use the same zcash-script implementation that is used by zcash to avoid bugs causing issues with consensus, but long term we may wish to eventually switch both zebrad and zcashd from the zcashconsensus c++ implementation over to our rust reimplementation.
