At least Mingw does not seem to be affected. I'm able tro build current GCC master branch for Mingw 
as cross-compiler from Linux (Arch Linux, took some time to get MAKEPKG file ready especially if 
each build lasts some time even on Ryzen 9 3950X)

At least fma(|fl) stuff we could borrow from Mingw libm (license notice on the top of file seems to 
allow that)

The problem with missing libm functions will however be a problem for Newlib targets. Checked one 
embedded target I have to deal at work at Finnish Meteorological institute it also do not have 
these functions. Of course no native compiler there. I also have not build cross-compiler for it 
myself.
