Hey Nicholas!

I still don't have one based on 6.12.12 ... yet.  My reasoning for this is it
wasn't released until after I had glibc-2.41 as an integral part of the mix
here, which it now is.

That sounds about right except that there are previous releases still being
supported such as;

longterm:   5.4.290       2025-02-01

which is the oldest branch (5.4) still being worked on as the above date
suggests.  I had issues with that branch.  glibc-2.41 claims that kv 4.19.0 is
the minimum supported release but it can be configured to only support newer
releases if desired.  I haven't had a 4.19 kernel running here for quite some
time now but I figure I'll keep it as the minimum for glibc as long as there
is a minimum.  However new gcc's might not be so inclined.  I note you are
claiming gcc-14.2.1 which you might want to check as far as suitable kv's and
glibc versions are concerned.  So far no issues with gcc-14.2.0/glibc-2.41
that I've noticed but I am betting that a gcc-14.3.0 release isn't too far off.

Life is good,
Maurice
