I am not fluent in multi-arch, so I can't sanely judge this, but the bug
closed here is against gcc-8 and message #15 mentioned a required change
in src:gcc-8-cross (which at least hasn't closed this bug yet). So, can
this change in binutils go into buster on its own, or does it require
more coordination and does it need to go together with other packages?

I didn't fully understand Ben's reply in message #20 (probably I need to
think harder). Does it mean there are no changes required in src:linux?
