I presume that's to be expected - it's certainly a pain, but anybody crosscompiling with GCC and updating to 8 or newer is going to be running into the same there as well. FWIW, the change in GCC that changes this was this one: https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=commitdiff;h=5bc86b599054f494ec0a45e49b82749320eaa9c4;hp=77efd154f33154e819186de79687ea55552139f4 This at least clarifies the situation, because the inconsistency (which show up e.g. in handwritten makefiles) between compiling natively vs crosscompiling has been pretty weird.
