Something along the lines...
- * GCC 6.2 or newer
+ * GCC 6.2 or newer (For some architectures specific later versions needed)
- GCC 6.2 or higher is required. In general it is recommended to use
- the newest version of the compiler that is known to work for
+ GCC 6.2 or higher is required. ARC architecture needs gcc 8.2 or later.
+ In general it is recommended to use the newest version of the compiler
