Comment (by kencu):

 I updated SnowLeopard to a newer gcc/libgcc default last year once the
 gcc11 build was smooth on that system.

 gcc / libgcc will likely be able to be updated to gcc11 on Tiger and
 Leopard as well once things settle down with the gcc10-bootstrap port that
 is required to build it.

 It's not just one missing link library here or there -- it's a whole
 infrastructure that needs to be upgraded properly.

 Someone (most likely Evan the way things are going lately) will then sit
 down with the entire system and work out all the many issues that will no
 doubt come up, and push the whole thing once it is all fixed.
