Ah, I wasn't aware that cross-compilation is ready for gcc 10 yet. Okay,
that makes sense.

I assumed that, yes, but at least for the recipes I addressed in my
patch, that doesn't cut it.
That said, there is also another patch needed for syslinux that doesn't

Alright. I'm happy to respin my patch or test alternative approaches.
After all, gcc 10 will have more exposure very soon with more
distributions are picking it up as default compiler.
