Hi Waldemar,

The GCC master branch can be broken from time to time, and this is the reason 
why we get a snapshot in our Synopsys git account for testing and stability. 
But once we get the gcc 8.x release, this shouldn't be the case, and you can 
use the official release with maybe some 1-2 extra patches on top. 
As for Binutils mainline master version, we discovered a number of issues which 
needs to be addressed on our side. The good news is we have patches which we 
are testing them right now, and I expect those patches to be quickly send to 
binutils mailing list and integrated once we have the confidence we brake 
nothing extra:)

Cheers,
Claudiu

Yes, that are the results I get when using the synopsys sources.
My idea is to forecast the results with upstream binutils and gcc in
the hope everything will be fine when gcc8 and binutils 2.31 is
released.

Here is the full log using binutils/gcc git master:
