For example in the "changes" for GCC 7.5.0 on Nov 14, 2019 : https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-7/changes.html There I see RISC-V but no mention of Linux or FreeBSD. Just as an example. Lets suppose I dragged out some old old machine and installed some old old dusty OS on it just for fun. Can I bootstrap GCC 7.5.0 or so I need to go to GCC 4.7 and GNU binutils 2.23.1 ? I have an Apple PowerMac G5 quad and a SPARCStation 20 both running fine but no clear idea what rev of GCC is best to bootstrap. Happy New Year and all that jazz. -- Dennis Clarke RISC-V/SPARC/PPC/ARM/CISC UNIX and Linux spoken GreyBeard and suspenders optional
