We've now worked out why we didn't see this in our CI and have patches
to fix that but that does mean we need the patches to fix this error
more urgently! If you have something please do send it as I was
thinking I might have to look at this today.

Ideally we'd fix this with something acceptable to upstream, they'd
take that and then we'd drop our changes next time we upgrade gcc.
Maintaining a backported patch is fine, it is the ones that never get
discussed with upstream we've been pushing back against.

Re: deleting the files, the question is whether they're being used. If
they are, we need to keep them. If they are never used, they could be
deleted. I don't know which is the case here.

Cheers,

Richard
