Public bug reported:

Please sync libstdc++-arm-none-eabi 4 (universe) from Debian unstable
(main)

Explanation of FeatureFreeze exception:

The current libstdc++-arm-none-eabi package in Utopic is loosely based
on the toolchain distributed at [1] by the very ARM employees
developping the ARM embedded cross-toolchain upstream. In the past
months we have worked with the maintainers of the Debian package to
merge our work in the Debian package so that it's as closed as possible
to the tarball we release.

We believe it would be better for Ubuntu to sync these changes. even at
this point of the release schedule, as this toolchain has seen much
wider testing. Indeed, we do lots of internal testing on real boards and
the number of users of this toolchain outnumbers the number of users of
the one provided in the current Ubuntu toolchain.

Changelog entries since current utopic version 3:

libstdc++-arm-none-eabi (4) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Keep exceptions in the speed optimized version.
  * Use _nano suffix instead of _s for size optimized version of libraries.
  * Include pretty printer debug files.
  * Add myself to Uploaders.
  * Disable testing: with exception handling the tests actually run and it
    takes too much time.
