@be0ba@fedi.tcp80.org @kaidenshi@exquisite.social @thomholwerda@exquisite.social yeah, they’re caught between a rock and a hard place there. stick with GCC, no licence regresson: 4.1.2 was the last GPLv2 version, so anything newer is out, eliminating new architectures from basestick with GCC and upgrade beyond 4.1.2: out because GPLv3 would be a reduction of freedom on base and thus inacceptableClang+LLVM: now ensloppified, but the Apple takeover has already cast deep shadows before; also, huge C++ monstrosityPCC: basically didn’t materialise; the ragge renewal… built software, but it was neither fast enough nor small enough for the boot floppiesfew other maintainable options under libre enough licences, even leaving currently-supported architectures out
