   Hi @aharui 
   
   > Updating to a new GCC is fine too, but will likely blow up the modules 
work I've done for js-release as I noticed they've rewritten some of the 
compiler passes I had to fork. So upgrading GCC is likely to be a lot of work.
   
   I think we should never patch external libraries like GCC since if make 
Royale dependent on that patches, then we're stuck on a concrete version and by 
the time we need to upgrade, will find lots of problems. I didn't know about 
that, but I think we should think about trying to solve with current versions 
of GCC without the need of patching, or if you found a bug, try to submit to 
make it part of the next release, so we hopefully can go to that version when 
released. Can we agree with that? I think this is very important to avoid 
future headaches. Thanks
