Thanks for the insight.

So it looks like I would need to backport the header fix to each version of gcc I’m interested in fixing, then.

That’s what I pretty much expected, I guess.

Fair enough — the reason I have to use gcc48 to build TenFourFox rather than gcc6 or gcc7 is more than likely due to differences in the gcc48 headers anyway, I suppose.

Thanks,

Ken
