The git tree is publically available for anybody to use under the terms and conditions of the license, so take it or leave it, as a whole or in parts, sure. But apart from you guys using outdated toolchains, let me point you to the more severe issue that you guys (i.e. not my git tree) build with fux0red up CFLAGS, so you'd better start off with fixing that before anything else. I think that i solved this nicely and cleanly in my tree. I even fixed some of the most annoying breakage (or my inability to use it properly, depending on your POV) that Ulf applied over time, fwiw. HTH, Bernhard
