Hi,

(so far) only on armhf, not on armel. (And arm64/aarch64 is a different bridge code)

The code is https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/refs/tags/libreoffice-24.8.0.2/bridges/source/cpp_uno/gcc3_linux_arm/uno2cpp.cxx#274 ff.

This didn't change in LO itself, so the only explanation is g++ 13 vs. g++ 14.
Indeed the same happens with LibreOffice 24.2.5 and building with g++ 13 works.

Any idea?
