Hi,
I started doing build of oi-userland with GCC 6 in fresh zones to fix:
1) missing build dependencies
2) compilation issues

I push things there:

https://github.com/alarcher/oi-userland/commits/gcc6

Considering the fairly long list of packages to fix, I would like to ask
for help but with a different approach.

1) I push fixes to the gcc6 branch during the rebuild in my GCC 6
environment.
2) one or more persons cherry-pick the commits as they come, make publish
in a normal environment and open the PR.
3) I rebase on oi/hipster as PRs are merged.

(Call it OI Taylorism)
So far most changes do not affect the end-product but build systems
(dependencies, autotools).

If we want to move forward it is crucial to progress on this.
Even helping with a few PRs would be very much appreciated!
Kind regards

Aurelien
