Hi!
PR web/85578 complains about broken links in INSTALL/specific.html inside of
the rc tarballs, I've looked at past releases and at least the releases I've
checked (4.7.0, 6.1, 7.1, 7.3, 8.1rc2) all have the broken links,
e.g.
<a href="#aarch64-x-x">aarch64*-*-*</a>
and
<a name="aarch64_002dx_002dx"></a><a name="aarch64_002a_002d_002a_002d_002a"></a>
<h3 class="heading">aarch64*-*-*</h3>
Looking at online docs, they are ok.
I think this has been fixed for the online docs with:

Use sed to work around makeinfo 4.7 brokenness.
Isn't this something we should be doing in gcc/doc/install.texi2html
too (or somewhere else)?
Bugzilla is down, so can't discuss it there...
