First of all, thanks for following up on this, I'm really happy to see
that we are not always *adding* more GCC/binutils bug options, but
sometimes *removing* some of them.

Regarding the CodeBench NIOSII toolchain from 2018.05, I think we could
simply delete it. It makes sense to support old toolchains to some
extent, but NIOSII is a very confidential architecture, and almost 6
years old toolchain is really ancient. So I would be entirely fine with
dropping this toolchain.

Best regards,

Thomas
