Based on a quick look, yes. The __rust_* methods that are normally generated by the compiled directly jump to the respective global allocator method, so they have the same safety requirements.

sounds a bit confusing to me. Would "... called by the compiler with
parameters that obey ..." make sense? Or does the sentence refer to
the normal case (i.e. when the functions are generated)? Anyway, it is
not a big deal.
