I think we can expect all distros that ship gcc-10 to eventually migrate
to gcc-10.2+. Until then, this patch should hopefully work. (I'm quite
annoyed by having to call the patch "temporary", as it feels very
technically impressive.)

So I think I agree with Leif, with a small modification to the idea:
rather than a *note* saying "back this out once 10.0 and 10.1 have been
replaced by 10.2+ in all 'large' distros", I would suggest filing a *BZ*
for the same. And I recommend making the new BZ dependent on
TianoCore#2723 (i.e. the present BZ).

Thanks!
Laszlo
