E.g. in 3.3.2 A Rust library

Pandoc uses fancyvbr which does not seem to feature any line breaking options.

If we were to switch to listings (just add --listings), we'd lose highlighting (as listings brings its own and does not support Rust).

Switching to --listings is not as easy as it seems:

! Undefined control sequence.

Another highlighting option is https://github.com/gpoore/minted which uses pygments.

So, the listings error posted above is actually a problem with the source itself and is fixed by rust-lang/rust#25432

So, the author of minted apparently wrote an extension to fancyvbr to allow line breaks. It's "documented" in the minted docs and in this answer on TeX-StackOverflow but I couldn't get it to work.
