Yeah, that one is a downside of the MSRV config -- please just allow it locally.

I hope we don't need more than a couple of those (we only had a case
elsewhere so far), and we will increase the minimum in the coming
months, so e.g. this one would go away. If it becomes too painful, I
will just disable it temporarily.

Thanks!
