Can you please list these incompatibilities.  The RTEMS test suite shows
no problems with this tool chain.  The GCC test suite looks also good.

This is exactly the patch that is in the corresponding RTEMS PR 1765
(https://www.rtems.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1765).  I only did what
you suggested: send this patch to the GCC list for review.

I don't share this opinion.  If a RTEMS ARM user complains about the
EABI tool chain, we can fix the problem or provide a legacy tool chain.
