Yes, of course.  And they would be perfectly happy if they had a
_working_ tool chain which supports this.

But some do not, and instead of telling the makers of the ool chain
about our needs and wishes, each and every project works around the
issues, providing copies and copis of the same code, which is isolated
and not centrally maintained, and thus usually of poorer quality than
what you can find in recent tool chain versions.

The optimal way to fix a problem is to have it fixed at the root.

CONFIG_USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC is a workaround, but enabling it by default
means freezing the status quo: upstream tools will never get fixed.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
