This could be an option indeed (reverting to gcc 4.x instead of gcc
5.x). However, the fact that no-one is willing to test/maintain this
defconfig is a sign that nobody is interested in it. So I'd rather
remove it, than keep a defconfig that gets never updated, even when
there is a build issue.

So, options are clear:

 1. Remove the defconfig entirely.

 2. Update the defconfig in the proper way, minimally tested on HW.

Best regards,

Thomas
