Maybe I'm reading RP's reply differently, but I think he just asked to
collect all necessary changes for warrior to support newer host, before
they are accepted.

It doesn't help much when only one smaller issue is fixed and the rest
still needs to be figured out locally and the commit message might even
mislead people in assuming that gcc-10 on host is now supported in
warrior/thud.

FWIW: I've built some smaller thud based images on 20.04 with only small
modifications, e.g. fix for qemu:
https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core-contrib/commit/?h=jansa/thud&id=68475d0255c4089538886d1ee2cab6b6efd62ce1
there aren't probably many issues left, so it just needs someone to test it
more properly and collect all needed fixes to apply them at the same time
or give up if it shows too many difficult to solve issues (I doubt that).

In worst case they might be rejected, but then it would be still useful to
have them in one pull request and share them with other interested parties.

Cheers,
