We are in fact going to drop our binutils/gcc poison detection patches,
since we are moving to generalizing the toolchain wrapper to be also
used in the internal toolchain case. Since the wrapper already does the
poisoning detection, there will no longer be a point to have such
gcc/binutils patches in Buildroot.

Consequently, I've marked your patch as Rejected in patchwork.

Thanks!
