This absolutely sounds like the right option. Let's simplify the
problem space by just saying that parisc needs the newer compiler.
Right now we have that "minimum gcc version" in a somewhat annoying
place: it's in the ./scripts/min-tool-version.sh file as a shell
script.
I wonder if we could move the gcc minimum version check into the
Kconfig file instead, and make it easier to let architectures override
the minimum version.
I don't quite know how to do that sanely, though. I don't think we
have a sane way to error out at Kconfig time (except by forcing some
syntax error inside an 'if' statement or something horrendously hacky
like that).
Added Masahiro to the (already overlong) participants list.
