Subject: doc: Update target platforms list
Date: Thu, 25 Apr 2024 09:53:13 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7008662.NFm0MWfrMu@nimes> (raw)

This patch updates the list of target platforms. What has changed since last
year:
  - I cannot claim to be testing RHEL any more, since I don't have access
    to a copy of it and since the previous clones (CentOS, AlmaLinux etc.)
    can no longer sync with RHEL, due to [1].
  - FreeBSD's current major version is 14.
  - One of the AIX machines in the GCC compilefarm has been upgraded; I no
    longer have access to AIX 7.2.
  - I no longer have access to an IRIX 6.5 machine.
