If I can weight on that one....
it's technically a bug-fix, but the fix is only usefull in the far
future, once gcc-7 is out and current master is in maintainence mode and
doesn't compile with gcc-7
so no need to rush it in.
However that serie is probably usefull on krogoth and definitely usefull
on jethro. (I originally made it for jethro) so if it needs to be
accepted to allow backporting, maybe it's worth rushing it...

The BUILD_* family of variables allow the user to specify the
name of the host
compiler to use at build time. This feature is particularly
important for long
term maintainance. Future versions of gcc might not be
compatible with old
yocto distributions and we can't assume that "gcc" is the
correct name for the
compiler.
This problem is already an issue with Jethro which can't be
compiled on a
machine wher gcc-6 is the default compiler. pkgconfig-native
will refuse to
compile because it uses -Werror and gcc-6 has new warnings
compared to gcc-5
This patch serie fixes multiple hard-coded references to gcc
in various recipes
and build infrastructure
This patch was tested by building core-image-minimal for
qemu-x86_64 with a
directory with the following content added to the PATH
g++ -> /bin/false
gcc -> /bin/false
myg++ -> /usr/bin/g++
mygcc -> /usr/bin/gcc
And the following variables added to local.conf
export BUILD_CC = "mygcc"
export BUILD_CXX = "myg++"
export BUILD_CPP = "mygcc -E"
export BUILD_CCLD = "mygcc"

* rewording in some commits messages
* no need for a patch to KConfig, use OE_RUNMAKE_FLAGS instead
* change all patch titles to use : in the short commit message
* rpm : manually remove files instead of calling make distclean
* libpcre : explicitely set CCLD_FOR_BUILD in the recipe since
it's the only
recipe using it.
* glibc patch has been submited upstream
It would be interesting to modify yocto's builders to use the
BUILD_*
variable in order to have some early warning wrt gcc polution
in recipes, but
seeing the various recipes I had to patch, I would expect such
a change to
trigger a high number of build failures.
Jérémy Rosen (8):
cross: export CC family from BUILD_* for cross compilers
linux-yocto: allow overriding compiler name in KConfig
linux-libc-headers: allow overriding compiler name in KConfig
busybox: allow overriding compiler name in KConfig
sanity: fix hardcoded references to gcc
glibc: remove hard-coded reference to gcc -E
rpm: manually cleanup sysck
libpcre: explicitely specify CCLD_FOR_BUILD for this recipe
