Heh, we've been discussing sunos/sparc a.out with phone and literally

build.sh tools for -8 fails in on a modern host, b/c newer c++
compilers default to c++17, so compiling old cross-gcc from -8 fails:

  external/gpl3/gcc/dist/gcc/reload1.c:115:24: error: use of an operand of type 'bool' in 'operator++' is forbidden in C++17

You might need to build with HOST_CXX='c++ -std=c++11'
