-# GCC-8.2.0 causes a problem with Perl-5.28 where Configure wrongly
-# believes every function it checks is available.  Need to revisit this
-# at a later point.
+# GCC-8.2.0 has a faulty libgcc_s, which causes C++ exceptions not the
+# caught in certain conditions.  ld64 is the notable condition leading
+# to configure believing every function it checks is available.
