We are using Nix to do this. It’s only a few lines of code. We build a gcc 14 stdenv that uses an old glibc.

But I agree that this should just be a simple target SDK flag.

I think the issue is that the Linux community is generally hostile towards proprietary software and it’s less of an issue for FLOSS because they can always be compiled against the latest.
