+# GCC 8 — legacy version for old-vendored-C++ projects.
+#
+# Many projects vendoring older C++ libraries (RocksDB 6.3.x, old
+# MySQL 5.7, old InnoDB, pre-C++17 codebases generally) hit the
+# stricter copy-ctor / atomic / pair-construction rules introduced
+# in gcc 12+ libstdc++. They compile cleanly with gcc 8 which was
+# the last major to default to C++14 / gnu++14 ABI.
+#
+# Companion to gnu.org/gcc (latest) for cubefs.io, mysql.com/v5_7,
+# and other from-source recipes that can't easily be patched to
+# modern C++.

+# from llvm.org which has its own legacy mode.
