I have a iMX6 board, maybe two, that I bought for this. I think mine is the wandboard. But we can trivially switch to the new gcc. Even w/o switching to my new framework, it's just one file away from working (basically, snag gcc5.h or gcc6.h from newer u-boot and use them, or even just use the gcc4.h one). I fought this on other ports before I switched over to the new framework. But of course we should switch if we can... When I looked at the issue last, it appeared that all our iMX6-supported boards that had waco out-of-mailine u-boots had support for them added to upstream. Warner
