Description of changes

This change switches to using GCC 11 by default on aarch64-linux, as well as passing -lgcc to the linker, per #201485.

See #201254 and #208412 for wider context on the issue.

I'm opening this just so we have something to fall back on for the short-term in case #209063 has to be held back for whatever reason. As such, this is a draft, but just to prevent merging; I appreciate any and all reviews.

Things done
  • Built on platform(s)
    • x86_64-linux
    • aarch64-linux, nix-build -A fd
    • x86_64-darwin
    • aarch64-darwin
  • For non-Linux: Is sandbox = true set in nix.conf? (See Nix manual)
  • Tested, as applicable:
  • Tested compilation of all packages that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review rev HEAD". Note: all changes have to be committed, also see nixpkgs-review usage
  • Tested basic functionality of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • 23.05 Release Notes (or backporting 22.11 Release notes)
    • (Package updates) Added a release notes entry if the change is major or breaking
    • (Module updates) Added a release notes entry if the change is significant
    • (Module addition) Added a release notes entry if adding a new NixOS module
    • (Release notes changes) Ran nixos/doc/manual/md-to-db.sh to update generated release notes
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Yeah, #209063 might take a while to land (week(s)?).

The workaround looks good.

Maybe we'll need something similar for spidermonkey? https://hydra.nixos.org/build/204263464

All three versions are the same in this respect.
It's the issue with old libgcc_s propagated via our glibc package; e.g.
#209113

See NixOS#209113 for context. This has to
be done manually because rpm-ostree doesn't use the Cargo setup hooks (which
automatically set this flag).
