@@ -13,6 +13,12 @@ https://bitbucket.org/GregorR/musl-cross/src. Compared to the upstream version:
    causing build failure. Bug reported upstream at
    https://bitbucket.org/GregorR/musl-gcc-patches/issue/4/musl-gcc-patches-break-the-build-on.
 
+ * change the USE_PT_GNU_EH_FRAME logic to keep the existing gcc logic
+   and only add the musl one as an addition, not as a replacement. Not
+   doing this breaks C++ exception handling with glibc, because
+   USE_PT_GNU_EH_FRAME doesn't get defined due to the configure script
+   not testing dl_iterate_phdr() on any system except Solaris.
