What do you call an "official GCC build" ? A toolchain built by Buildroot from source ? Buildroot can only build a single toolchain, which is Linux capable. Buildroot does not know how to build a separate bare-metal toolchain, which is why in such situations we use an existing pre-compiled toolchain.
