 Thanks! I actually don't have any viable (real) hardware to test with,
 I was relying on the TNF bulk builds to detect this (which haven't run
 again yet).
 
 I noticed it because I'd bumped some packages to require GCC 8 minimum.
 Instead of them failing to build because of missing C++ features, they
 were now blocked by the lack of GCC 8.
 
 There's more than one way to deal with this, I guess. One would be to
 require GCC 10 for these ports, specifically. This is a deck (or should
 I say house) of cards I reshuffled to try and get Gnome to build for
 NetBSD 9.x. (I don't know how relevant this would generally be for 32-
 bit ARM users.)
 
 Thanks,
 
 Dave
