Dunno, that was one of the reasons to try... @-)

gcc (Debian 12.2.0-12) 12.2.0 was saying "Unknown option" or to that
effect. It was last year when I tyied, and after so many of them showing
up through the compiling process I gave up. (Ie: I'd remove that option
and start again, only for another one to show up.)

This was done with no cross-compile, directly on the machine.
