I believe that the testing harness is set up with some special configuration for crates that require system libraries. I'm not sure what you mean about enabling features -- are there critical crates that literally don't work with the default feature set? Windows point is legit.
I wasn't aware that things like changing allowed kleene separators was under permissible breakage. Excluding std which has its supporting RFC, my understanding was that breaking changes were only permitted for bugs or soundness issues.

See https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/1589 …, though I don't know if it applies here. But you said "frequently", so I assumed you were talking about library changes; I don't believe that language-level breaking changes have been frequent?

I'm not referring to bug fixes. I haven't really been keeping a list of things I've seen/been affected by (I've typically commented on things I've been affected by, but a lot of the time it's just easier to fix the breakage on my end than complain)
