It seems there have been updates for one version or multiple versions of gcc or 
their libraries nearly every day lately. What’s up with that?

If one has to recompile (some are prebuilt, thankfully), that REALLY slows down 
updates. With 7 systems (4 of which are VMs at different macOS versions), 
anything that makes updates slower is not fun. Not to mention about 22 Linux, 
Solaris, or Windows systems (mostly VMs/LDOMs/zones, not physical boxes! not 
nearly as much hardware as it sounds like) getting updated too. (nostalgia for 
decades of being in IT, and that doesn’t even count emulators for Apollo 
workstation, IBM mainframe, and other exotica distantly remembered)
