Thanks for your interest in GCC! A good place to start is by reading the project's mailing list (the one you've contacted!) and if you did that, you would find this question has already been asked and answered several times this month. You could start by reading those previous threads, so we don't need to keep repeating ourselves. See these threads (and others): https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc/2021-November/237719.html https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc/2021-November/237745.html https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc/2021-November/237754.html
