Possibly useful patches for gcc 4.7.3
While building a cross-compiler targeting Alpine, I had a look at what patches Buildroot and Gentoo were applying to the toolchain, and found some they were using that we weren’t. Among these, a casual glance made some look not especially useful for us. The rest looked like they may be useful, or at any rate, looked like I didn’t understand well enough what they were doing to have even a casual judgment about their usefulness. I thought I’d link to these patches in our bugtracker so that someone more familiar with the toolchain sources might have a look at them, and make a more considered judgment about whether they might be useful for us too.
Here are two patches targetting gcc 4.7.3. Each is used by Buildroot and Gentoo:
