I'm not sure if you are referring to something else, but Oracle's builds of the JDK are intended to be portable and we are currently on GCC 13.2.0. There is no need to keep the GCC version low for portable builds, just the libs in the sysroot (which is where the GLIBC dependency is decided). We statically link libstdc++ and libgcc to avoid incompatibilities from GCC. This is why we use "devkits", to be able to combine a modern GCC with the lowest denominator sysroot that we need for our support matrix. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/14988#issuecomment-1895844654
