That's not how we want to handle this.

For binutils, you can already select any upstream version, or the ARC
specific version on ARC. So there is nothing to change here: you can
already select either upstream or ARC-specific.

Ditto for gcc, you can already chose any upstream gcc version >= 7.x
for ARC, or the ARC-specific version.

So, I don't understand what your patch brings: what you describe in
your commit log is already possible today.

The following defconfig is already possible with Buildroot today:

BR2_arcle=y
BR2_archs38=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_GLIBC=y
BR2_BINUTILS_VERSION_2_33_X=y
BR2_GCC_VERSION_9_X=y

It builds an ARC HS38 glibc toolchain with upstream gcc 9.x and
upstream binutils 2.33.

Best regards,

Thomas
