initial import of GCC 12.3.0.
major changes in GCC 11 included:
- The default mode for C++ is now -std=gnu++17 instead of -std=gnu++14. - When building GCC itself, the host compiler must now support C++11, rather than C++98. - Some short options of the gcov tool have been renamed: -i to -j and -j to -H. - ThreadSanitizer improvements. - Introduce Hardware-assisted AddressSanitizer support. - For targets that produce DWARF debugging information GCC now defaults to DWARF version 5. This can produce up to 25% more compact debug information compared to earlier versions. - Many optimisations. - The existing malloc attribute has been extended so that it can be used to identify allocator/deallocator API pairs. A pair of new -Wmismatched-dealloc and -Wmismatched-new-delete warnings are added. - Other new warnings: -Wsizeof-array-div, enabled by -Wall, warns about divisions of two sizeof operators when the first one is applied to an array and the divisor does not equal the size of the array element. -Wstringop-overread, enabled by default, warns about calls to string functions reading past the end of the arrays passed to them as arguments. -Wtsan, enabled by default, warns about unsupported features in ThreadSanitizer (currently std::atomic_thread_fence). - Enchanced warnings: -Wfree-nonheap-object detects many more instances of calls to deallocation functions with pointers not returned from a dynamic memory allocation function. -Wmaybe-uninitialized diagnoses passing pointers or references to uninitialized memory to functions taking const-qualified arguments. -Wuninitialized detects reads from uninitialized dynamically allocated memory. -Warray-parameter warns about functions with inconsistent array forms. -Wvla-parameter warns about functions with inconsistent VLA forms. - Several new features from the upcoming C2X revision of the ISO C standard are supported with -std=c2x and -std=gnu2x. - Several C++20 features have been implemented. - The C++ front end has experimental support for some of the upcoming C++23 draft. - Several new C++ warnings. - Enhanced Arm, AArch64, x86, and RISC-V CPU support. - The implementation of how program state is tracked within -fanalyzer has been completely rewritten with many enhancements.

major changes in GCC 12 include:
- An ABI incompatibility between C and C++ when passing or returning by value certain aggregates containing zero width bit-fields has been discovered on various targets. x86-64, ARM and AArch64 will always ignore them (so there is a C ABI incompatibility between GCC 11 and earlier with GCC 12 or later), PowerPC64 ELFv2 always take them into account (so there is a C++ ABI incompatibility, GCC 4.4 and earlier compatible with GCC 12 or later, incompatible with GCC 4.5 through GCC 11). RISC-V has changed the handling of these already starting with GCC 10. As the ABI requires, MIPS takes them into account handling function return values so there is a C++ ABI incompatibility with GCC 4.5 through 11. - STABS: Support for emitting the STABS debugging format is deprecated and will be removed in the next release. All ports now default to emit DWARF (version 2 or later) debugging info or are obsoleted. - Vectorization is enabled at -O2 which is now equivalent to the original -O2 -ftree-vectorize -fvect-cost-model=very-cheap. - GCC now supports the ShadowCallStack sanitizer. - Support for __builtin_shufflevector compatible with the clang language extension was added. - Support for attribute unavailable was added. - Support for __builtin_dynamic_object_size compatible with the clang language extension was added. - New warnings: -Wbidi-chars warns about potentially misleading UTF-8 bidirectional control characters. -Warray-compare warns about comparisons between two operands of array type. - Some new features from the upcoming C2X revision of the ISO C standard are supported with -std=c2x and -std=gnu2x. - Several C++23 features have been implemented. - Many C++ enhancements across warnings and -f options.

initial import of GCC 9.3.0. changes include:
- live patching support - shell completion help - generally better diagnostic output (less verbose/more useful) - diagnostics and optimisation choices can be emitted in json - asan memory usage reduction - many general, and specific to switch, inter-procedure, profile and link-time optimisations. from the release notes: "Overall compile time of Firefox 66 and LibreOffice 6.2.3 on an 8-core machine was reduced by about 5% compared to GCC 8.3" - OpenMP 5.0 support - better spell-guesser - partial experimental support for c2x and c++2a - c++17 is no longer experimental - arm AAPCS GCC 6-8 structure passing bug fixed, may cause incompatibility (restored compat with GCC 5 and earlier.) - openrisc support

import GCC 7.5.0. doing this here so that the vendor branch has the code we'll merge into gcc.old and the netbsd-9 tree gcc tree. GCC 8.4.0 will be imported immediately on top of this again, restoring the current status.
