See https://github.com/graydon/rust/blob/master/doc/rust.texi#L618 . The table is sorted column-first, and written row-first. Unless there is some tool to reorganize these that I don't know about, changing this table seems to involve manually re-sorting the whole thing, manually splitting it back into rows, and interleaving the sorted words in such a way that they align. No one should have to deal with that.
