The current core-packages-team uses the gcc and bash fixes for all
platforms and now also supports building all gcc versions from 4.8 and
up, and I've just built hello again for x86_64-linux.

I've built the rust bootstrap several times already, guess I'll just go
for a new round.  But this time we can maybeu "cheat" with packages that
are too difficult to build, and build them with another gcc version than
14?

Greetings,
Janneke
