Also, I'm offering help around one particular aspect I noticed:

References to dependencies on really, really old versions of
binutils (talking 10+ years here) which I think we can remove.
Let me follow-up with some of you with concrete suggestions
around that.

The arm-*-eabi section currently has this:

   ARM-family processors.  Subtargets that use the ELF object format
   require GNU binutils 2.13 or newer.  Such subtargets include:
   @code{arm-*-netbsdelf}, @code{arm-*-*linux-*}
   and @code{arm-*-rtemseabi}.

Okay to yank this?


Fine by me. Nick is much more involved in binutils development and so might have
a better view of how much older binutils are used in the wild though.
Nick, do you have any objections to this?

Thanks,
Kyrill
