Dropping GCC 11 into rawhide now would mean I can't make certain
ABI-breaking changes to the C++20 library in upstream GCC, because it
would be landing on real users' machines. Which means I lose several
weeks of GCC's stage 1 development. No thanks.

This is for C++20 library support only, right?

Right.

Not much software in Fedora uses the C++ standard library (even at older
C++ versions), so impact on Fedora itself should be limited.

On Fedora iteself, yes. But not necessarily on users compiling their
own code (or other third-party libraries) using the system compiler.

I can help you with diagnosing required ABI transitions and package
rebuilds.

I'd rather just be able to change things freely during stage 1 :-)
