I noticed rustc_codegen_nvvm is yapping on Windows:
error: failed to run custom build command for `vecadd v0.1.0 (F:\Git\github.com\rust-gpu\Rust-CUDA\examples\cuda\vecadd)`
Caused by:

Then I noticed nvvm64_40_0.dll maybe missing:
Indeed, adding nvvm folder to the PATH env fixed it:
$env:PATH += ";C:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA\v12.9\nvvm\bin"
PS> cargo build
// just works
