This seems to have been omitted over-time.
Using the default Host/Configure seems to work fine.
The last patches to have touched this in a major way were ~10 years ago:
33a0eb3613 ("cosmetic & coherency fixes")
7eb1589875 ("build system refactoring in preparation for allowing
packages to do host-build steps")

new features:
- priority-inheritance mutexes
- membarrier syscall, pre-registration to use it, fallback emulation
- header-level support for new linux features in 4.19, 4.20, 5.0
major internal changes:
- complete, async-safe view of all existent threads as global list
- robust __synccall based on new thread list
- new dynamic TLS is installed synchronously at dlopen
- TLSDESC resolver functions no longer make bad ABI assumptions to call C
- resolved shared library dependencies are now recorded
compatibility & conformance:
- dependency-order shared library constructor execution
- sigaltstack no longer rejects SS_AUTODISARM, future flags
- FILE is now a complete (dummy) type in pre-C11 feature profiles
- setvbuf reports failure on invalid arguments
- TSVTX is exposed unconditionally in tar.h
- multithreaded set*id() no longer depends on /proc
- key slot reuse after pthread_key_delete no longer depends on /proc
bugs fixed:
- failures in multithreaded set*id() with concurrent thread creation/exit
- interposed free was called from invalid/inconsistent contexts
- freeaddrinfo performed invalid free of some partial results lists
- dlsym dependency order search had false negatives and false positives
- dn_skipname gave wrong results for labels with 8-bit content
- dcngettext clobbered errno, often breaking printing of error messages
- sscanf read past end of buffer under certain conditions (1.1.21 regression)
- pthread_key_create spuriously failed under race condition (1.1.21 regression)
- fdopendir wrongly succeeded with O_PATH file descriptors
- gets behaved incorrectly in presence of null bytes
- namespace violations in c11 tsd and mutex function dependencies
- incorrect prototype for makecontext (unimplemented)
arch-specfic bugs fixed:
- s390x had wrong values for POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED/_NOREUSE
Extensively tested on dozens of devices, covering most popular architectures.

This problem exposed when compiling glibc, but applicable across the
board. gcc compiles runtime libraries for all supported architectures,
unless otherwise specified, and later selects applicable library based
-m[arch,cpu,*] options, thus these options should not be passed to gcc
as they break the compilation process.

[modified so it only touches ARM - I'm too chicken, changed authors email]
Set the toolchain's ARM CPU and FPU architectures by utilizing' gcc's
--with-cpu / --with-fpu configure options that: "Specify which cpu
variant the compiler should generate code for by default. cpu will
be used as the default value of the -mcpu= switch."
This will resolve the following kernel compilation failures under
gcc 8.x on ARM because the kernel wants to set (possibly conflicting)
optimization flags.
.../ccyVnmrs.s:204: Error: selected processor does not support `dmb ish' in ARM mode
.../ccyVnmrs.s:215: Error: architectural extension `mp' is not allowed for the current base architecture
.../ccyVnmrs.s:216: Error: selected processor does not support `pldw [r4]' in ARM mode
Because this is a big change, the .config and toolchain need to be
refreshed (as in removed and regenerated).

"This release makes improvements with respect to default thread stack
size, including increasing the default from 80k to 128k, increasing
the default guard size from 4k to 8k, and allowing the default to be
increased via ELF headers so that programs that need larger stacks can
be build without source-level changes, using just LDFLAGS.
Insufficient stack size for AIO threads on kernels that don't honor
the constant MINSIGSTKSZ is also fixed.
The glob core has been rewritten to fix inability to see past
searchable-but-unreadable path components, and to avoid excessive
stack usage and unnecessary syscalls. The tsearch AVL tree
implementation has also been rewritten for better size and
performance. The math library adds more native single-instruction
implementations for arm, s390x, powerpc, and x86_64.
Various bugs are fixed, including several possible deadlocks, one of
which was a new regression in 1.1.20."

Commit e61061a088 added support for hardening
options in the toolchain. However this breaks the gcc5.5.0 compilation in
case FORTIFY_SOURCE is set different from FORTIFY_SOURCE_NONE as reported
in [1].
Fix this by backporting the upstream patch which fixes this in later gcc versions

Instead of silently downgrading any non-MD5 crypt() request to DES,
cleanly fail with return NULL and errno = ENOSYS. This allows callers
to notice the missing support instead of the unwanted silent fallback
to DES.
Also add a menuconfig toolchain option to optionally disable the crypt
size hack completely. This can be probably made dependant on SMALL_FLASH
or a similar feature indicator in a future commit.

This release introduces the ability to replace/interpose the allocator
(malloc) subject to certain restrictions, adds an experimental m68k
port, and makes notable improvements to stdio (application-provided
buffers), getaddrinfo (AI_ADDRCONFIG, support for IPv4-only kernel
configurations), the dynamic linker (safety against dlopen of
libraries using initial-exec TLS model, reclaiming unused memory on
FDPIC archs, better dladdr results), and handling of default thread
stack size (pthread_setattr_default_np now works more reliably).
Many bugs have been fixed, including potentially dangerous regressions
in iconv (only for new conversions to legacy encodings) and visibly
incorrect behavior in printf on non-x86 archs (%a format with
precision specifier), in getopt_long_only when short options are a
prefix for a long option, in complex arc-trig/hyperbolic functions, in
strftime and mktime (timezone-specific issues), and numerous
less-obvious places.

Changes compared to GCC 7.x
001-revert_register_mode_search.patch dropped
The underlying issue is described at the end of
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58139
It is fixed by the upstream commit:
3fa2798aa8
020-PR-libstdc-81797-Add-.NOTPARALLEL-to-include-Makefil.patch dropped due to already upstream
100-PR-rtl-optimization-83496.patch dropped due to already upstream
910-mbsd_multi.patch
modified to fix ambiguous overloaded inform() call error
gcc/input.h
header: define UNKNOWN_LOCATION ((source_location) 0)
- inform (0, "someone does not honour COPTS correctly, passed %d times",
- honour_copts);
+ inform (UNKNOWN_LOCATION, "someone does not honour COPTS correctly, passed %d times",
+ honour_copts);
940-no-clobber-stamp-bits.patch dropped due to fixed upstream by another way
upstream commit: 87b2d547f8
950-cpp_file_path_translation.patch dropped, Both -fmacro-prefix-map and -ffile-prefix-map are added
to gcc 8.1.0, if I understand it correctly, we should use -fmacro-prefix-map
usage: -fmacro-prefix-map=@var{old}=@var{new}
upstream commit: 859b51f836
-iremap exists as a flag for a long time, for backward compatibility, I think we should keep the
variable name unchanged but change its value in rules.mk for gcc 8.x and higher.
