Hi, Jakub. If at all possible, I'd like to request that a back port of PR c++/88095 [1] be included in the gcc 9.2 release. The rationale for including this is that it is required for one of the approaches discussed in P1423 [2] (see [3]) that may be useful for some programmers to mitigate backward compatibility impact from the adoption of char8_t in C++20 via P0482 [4]. Having this feature working in 9.2 would give impacted programmers more time to evaluate their C++20 migration options. The patch has already been integrated in trunk [5]. I verified that it applies cleanly against the gcc-9-branch (with the exception of the ChangeLog changes), and that tests complete successfully on Linux x86_64. There are no target dependencies involved in this change. Tom.
