Yes. Sort of.

I encountered it when upgrading the cross compilers. The fix is to make 
gcc14 depend on a newer binutils. gcc14 *might* document which binutils 
it needs, but I'm pretty sure I just picked the latest binutils for the 
cross compilers. I don't have a good understanding of how that works for 
the native pkgsrc compilers but it should be pretty straightforward.

I really should pull my finger out and commit the work I've done. Not 
during the careful period though. Feel free to harass me later today or 
tomorrow. Actually, the weather's nice for a change so I should drop by 
and you can harass me in person.

Ngā mihi,
