 The `rustc-link-lib` instruction tells Cargo to link the given library using
 the compiler's [`-l` flag][option-link]. This is typically used to link a
 native library using [FFI].
 
+The `LIB` string is passed directly to rustc, so it supports any syntax that
+`-l` does. \
+Currently the full supported syntax for `LIB` is `[KIND[:MODIFIERS]=]NAME[:RENAME]`.
+
 The `-l` flag is only passed to the library target of the package, unless
 there is no library target, in which case it is passed to all targets. This is
 done because all other targets have an implicit dependency on the library
