undefined reference to `getentropy'

[Dixilea]

When trying to build with the 32blit.toolchain, I'm getting the following linking errors:

/usr/lib/gcc/arm-none-eabi/14.2.0/../../../../arm-none-eabi/bin/ld: warning: MyProject.elf has a LOAD segment with RWX permissions

An internet search suggests there might an issue with older versions of libstdc++ not providing a definition for getentropy(). Examination of the 32blit.toolchain suggests it's downloading some version of libstdc++, and that it's linking against that.

Could a bump in the version downloaded by the toolchain possibly remedy the situation?

I'll note that my code was originally written for a PicoSystem and works on (and builds for) that as well as Linux without issue.

This might be related to #845.

🤔 Considering that the references to getentropy are coming from the stdlibs themselves I'd guess that they're misconfigured in some way. (Though if it were there, it would probably be a stub)

Edit: okay our newlib is too old, the stub was added in https://sourceware.org/git/?p=newlib-cygwin.git;a=commitdiff;h=b9e867d088935d9f0bf312e6dbf3e4976850dfd3.
