Changes between Initial Version and Version 1 of Ticket #63899, comment 5

initial	v1
1		The simple fact is there currently is no official release of gcc that supports apple silicon. Gcc11 has some patches that are supposed to work, but we have had issues with them. Gcc-devel has generally worked better but this is a rolling release, that builds gcc snapshots and thus changes regularly. It also uses different sources of intel and arm as currently the mainstream gcc snapshots still do not have support folded in, so we use a separate branch maintained by the primary gcc darwin lead. But still, it is never a proper prelease just a snapshot build so no guarantees i am afraid.
