# Trick to build a gcc that is capable of emitting shared libraries *without* having the
# targetPlatform libc available beforehand.  Taken from:

  # crt{i,n}.o are the first and last (respectively) object file
  # linked when producing an executable.  Traditionally these
  # files are delivered as part of the C library, but on GNU
  # systems they are in fact built by GCC.  Since libgcc needs to
  # build before glibc, we can't wait for them to be copied by
  # glibc.  At this early pre-glibc stage these files sometimes
  # have different names.

  # Normally, `SHLIB_LC` is set to `-lc`, which means that
  # `libgcc_s.so` cannot be built until `libc.so` is available.
  # The assignment below clobbers this variable, removing the
  # `-lc`.
  #
  # On PowerPC we add `-mnewlib`, which means "libc has not been
  # built yet".  This causes libgcc's Makefile to use the
  # gcc-built `{e,n}crt{n,i}.o` instead of failing to find the
  # versions which have been repackaged in libc as `crt{n,i}.o`
