I suppose this is duplicate of #1248

I found my answer from #1248 by @retep998:

bindgen as a binary depends on internal rustc crates. Therefore you cannot run it directly, but instead must run it using rustup run and you must specify the same toolchain that you used to install it originally. If you ever update that toolchain then you must reinstall bindgen.
