Thanks for the reply. I actually already moved onto attempting to
build from the 6.0 branch, so I guess I'll stick with that for the
time being...

However, I ran into another problem - trying to build the embedded
target (with the default package selection) fails at the GMP library,
apparently due to C++ dependencies:

There didn't seem to be other relevant information in the full error
log, and similar problems have been reported before [1, 2], so
hopefully this output is enough. I didn't yet attempt to dig deeper
into it in the hope that it's a known problem with a quick solution?
