I ran rustup update stable, and it did not work either

+1, this is the issue that prompted #930

[c3potheds]

My workaround currently is to invoke:

rustup self uninstall
rm -rf .rustup
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

... and then manually re-run the prebuild commands (e.g. cargo build, cargo install cargo-nextest).

If the resolution to #930 still isn't taking effect after a while I'll look into figuring out how to put all of this in the prebuild initializer.
