I no longer speak for IBM (retired) so more of a personal Linux for POWER
opinion. But the Advance Toolchain (AT)
<ftp://public.dhe.ibm.com/software/server/POWER/Linux/toolchain/at/redhat/RHEL8/at13.0/release_notes.at13.0-13.0-2.html>
provides
the counter example and as it's on the 13th release (follows GCC releases,
AT14 coming soon) I would say useful and valid. AT does separate builds for
each distro it supports but the RHEL 8 build, installs on Fedora.

Full disclosure, AT was my  idea. The goal was to enable new POWER hardware
feature for customers, who insisted on running old (stable) distributions.

Now it is likely DevToolSet has different and conflicting goals. I am
willing to accept that and move on.

Well it is, as PVECLIB supports BE and LE. And a chroot will not handle
that.
